Machine Specs
Asus P4P800 Deluxe
P4 2.6
1 Gig or Corsair XMS Pro memory
XFX 6800 (plain vanilla)

Nothing overclocked


Playing Wolfenstien ET tonight my machine froze then the graphics went
blocky, tried a few games and the same result on all of them random grey
blocks all of the screen works fine in Windows XP Pro.

Any help

Thanks for your time

Simon

Something may have corrupted the video drivers. Have you tried
uninstalling the drivers, and reinstalling a fresh set? I'd try that
first.

Sounds like a dead power supply.
