Okay It completed one test and I exited, gonna do it overnight today.

Could it be the graphic card fucking up stuff?

When it crashed and I rebooted the login thing was out of screen and my resolution turned to 800x600 or something.

So I ran memtest for 12hrs~, and it didn't find anything.

Any other options?

Even playing a Age of Empires II game against my bro in LAN is fatal, alot of pixels turn negative and a hour after they turned negative pc crashes too.

From what appears it looks like you overclocked too far and the graphic card has become unstable. If you didn't overclock, check your power supply.

Stupid question. Whats your PSU? I had a friend running a high card on too low of a PSU once and it froze the graphics like crazy.

I don't think so, already checked that.
I also have a very big fan in my case.

Again, there are billions of things that could be causing this. Finding out what it is would be impossible if you don't give us enough information. Most likely reason is simply that you have way too many programs running in the background and you are playing the game at too high of specs.

When I'm playing Age of Empires II against my lil bro, like I earlier mentioned..(Even without background programs.)it still crashes.

Here are all my components, maybe someone could recognize a problem..

Processor: Intel Core™ 2 Quad Q8200 (4x 2333 MHz) HPHI4D
PSU: Straight Power BQT E6-450W (450 Watt) TN4V24
Motherboard: Asus P5N-T Deluxe (NVIDIA nForce 780i SLI) GPEAC0
Harddisk: Hitachi HDT721010SLA360 (1.000 GB) AEBI13
RAM: Buffalo 4 GB DDR2-1066 Kit (4096 MB) ICIEBS
Graphics: ASUS nVidia EN9500GT Magic 512MB DDR2 VGA/DVI/HDMI

Yeah, that doesn't help much. The only thing I could take a guess at would be that your PSU is inefficient (again, I don't know this, I'm taking a guess) and it doesn't always supply full 450W. So it might slip and then your components won't receive enough electricity, causing them to freeze. Once again, only a guess.

Okay, could be.

O yea, I also have 2 RAM sticks from a different brand and a lower MHz (667 I think and 512MB ram each stick.) Might this have to do something with the problem?
