Troubleshooting a graphical issue

The primary issue is that when running 'intensive' games (Indie full games seem to be fine, but anything from BF2 up to TF2 pack in) between 1 and 30 seconds into the game (Not the menu, actual gameplay) my screen goes all multicoloured and the sound repeats and then I have to reset my box.

I initially thought this was just TF2, as it started happening right after TF2 was updated, but I just tried both L4D2 and BF2 and both do the same thing.

My harddrive is split into 3 partitions, Windows on C, Games/Apps on D and storage on E. C has been freshly formatted and up to date and Steam and all my games freshly installed.

I've run a virus/spyware scan, tried multiple drivers, used different launch commands etc etc and can't get anywhere. Any ideas?
