Hello, I have just built a new computer and every once in a while when im playing games (COD4, WoW, Warcraft 3) My screen will lock up and then I will here a puttering noise from my headphones for about 4 seconds then nothing. I then have to hard boot my computer. Ive done a mem test for over 12 hours with no problems, CPU runs hotest at 55C, GPU about 70. Only thing i could think of was the GPU overheating but then I froze once when i was just installing a program. I also thought it might be my old IDE HD but then i took it out and installed windows on my SATA and it is still doing the same thing. I also do no overclocking what so ever.
