Hi, after installing LOTRO i've gotten crashes, but now its happening to other games as well which previously worked fine on my computer.
They are games such as guild wars, oblivion, cnc3
I am able to play these certain games for a short while before my game stops responding. Usually i see texture tearing or lines stretched across the screen before this happens.
Sometimes the game will crash and others, I need to press Ctrl+Alt+Del to close the game down. Most of the time the screen goes black and i get a no signal warning from my monitor. Sometimes i also get the nv4_disp.dll BSOD.
Here are the things i tried to do to fix the problem.
I've checked for over heating but my temperatures seems fine.
I've reinstalled drivers, updated direct x and reinstalled the game.
i must note that i do not get crashes while using the computer when not playing games.

Here are my specs
Asus M2N-E (Socket AM2) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard
AMD Athlon 64 3800+ 2.4GHz (Socket AM2)
Corsair 2GB DDR2 XMS2-5400 TwinX (2x1GB)
Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 200GB ST3200827AS SATA-II 8MB Cache
Tagan TG480-U22 480W ATX2.01 2Force SLi Compliant Silent PSU
Asus GeForce 7900 GTX/2DHT 512MB GDDR3 TV-Out/Dual DVI
(PCI-Express)
