Someone over on the nvidia forums informed me that my problem appears to be my PSU causing my graphics to freeze up when loading games on this new card. he says....
The 7600GS need a psu with at least 20A on the +12v rail, check the sticker on the side of your psu to check its +12v amperage rating. I also see you have overclocked the cpu, remove the overclock if you havent already done so and test your games again. A poor quality underpowered psu will give you the sumptons you have now.

now i just checked the side sticker and under the +12v part it has 18A and 216v under that, and im gona assume that its underpowered, its the same enlight psu listed in my rig config in my sig... i had always thought it would be enough but apparently not, now im a total noob on this power stuff with all these #'s, i gotta save cash here so what do you reccomend for a PSU to meet my needs here, and remember its gotta have that 20A on the +12v rail.
