I've built a new computer with:
ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe mobo, BIOS 1008
Barton 2500+ @ 3200+ (11x200)
512 MB PC3200 Kingston RAM
Sapphire Radeon 9800 Pro
Windows XP Pro w/ all Critical Updates
Anytime I play a game, after a couple minutes I'm thrown to the desktop, and the game crashes. There are no error messages, it's like I exited the game normally. My processor is overclocked, but my temps are fine, and the temp inside the case is pretty low. The Radeon is running at stock speeds. I can run 3dMark03 as long as I want, and get pretty good scores.
Is there a program that can check the graphics card's temperature, or that I can use to try lowering its speed to see what the issue is? I have the newest nForce drivers, and the 4.2 Catalyst drivers. Disabling sound doesn't seem to help at all, and I've already tried disabling fast write and changing the aperture size.
