I recently built a new system and everything seems to be running fine. Although when i am playing games or on the net it Randomly closes the program and returns to windows, i could be playing for 5mins or 5 hours. It doesnt crash because i can still navagate windows and open programs.

Windows Me
1.4 Athlon
Asus A7V266 4in1
60.1GB IBM
256MB DDr PC2100
Morpheus Geforce 3 12.90
Tornado Coolercase

Please help!!
