it might be on an off chance that the processor is getting too hot. i have a 1.1 ghz tbird and the thing became really unstable after about 5 mins of gaming and reaching a temp of 128 degrees F. you should be able to go into the bios by pressing the delete, f10, f8, or similar buttons when you restart your machine. look for the section on 'power management' or 'monitoring' to see how hot your cpu is getting (if you dont have a cpu thermometer).
check microsoft's website if there are any obvious known problems with your particular motherboard/videocard/cpu combo. somebody else might of ran into this problem and fixed it already.
try disabling agp4x, agp fast reads/writes, lowering memory timings, or anything else that might be tweaked in your bios.
do you have an athlon (slot-a) 1ghz or a thunderbird (socket-a) 1ghz? which chipset? kx133, kt133, sis730, amd750?

I don't really have a comment,but a question.What about an AMD 1000 Thunderbird,that is what I just got,with 45 gig H/D 192megs ram,but i'm having trouble with vidio cards,I think the first was a adi,not sure about the name,but it was a 32 meg,but it would't work,so they put in a Millenniumg 450 Matrox 32meg,but now the DVD is't working right, everything else is working great but during a movie it'll just stop with with an error message,tried two other movies, one did the same thing,the other, I did get to watch,but you could see a trail behind the people when they moved,so now I don't really know which way to go with it,any feed back would be helpful.
