Also, try to reinstall your video driver.

I did that already ... to no avail it seems

I'll try the other things you told me to but as this pc is about 5 years old ... I don't have the windows CD any more.



This is what ramtest gives :

Is it normal I only have 180 MB allocated (of the 512 ??)

[recovering disk space - old attachment deleted by ADMIN]I think I found the problem myself : it was the pinnacle software (to burn dvd's). I removed it (it was a whopping 780 MB) and replaced it with burn4free (only 10MB).
Now it runs games without shutting down all of a sudden.

I noticed my dvd-r drive was constantly making noises.
When I inserted a cd to burn an ISO (as Broni asked me to do) it restarted once again. That PROMPTED me to remove pinnacle.

Thanks for all the HELP everyone !
