Where are memtest and speedfan?

I'm starting to think it must be an overheating problem. I've tried pretty much everything else mentioned as far as updates and reinstalls...with no luck. So would getting a new video card (not like i don't need one anyways) solve the problem?

I checked the event log, and the majority of the crashes weren't in there. Most of the time, an error message doesn't even appear. I'm running an AMD Athlon 2700+, 1GB DDR RAM, Radeon 9250 128MB Video Card, Sound Blaster Audigy SE....i don't really think overheating is the problem, the programs run fine up until the exit. I'm at a loss on this one. I re-installed the OS (windows xp pro service pack 2) and updated the drivers....still same problem.

I'm having a problem with games exiting back out to the desktop after 20 minutes or so of play. Everything is running fine during the short time before it closes, and i'm only having the issue on games. All other programs i have installed are running very smoothly.....even ones that require a little cpu horsepower. Does anyone know what could be causing this problem??
