Default New system crashes during video games :-(

Hello everyone, my name is Arthur and I was hoping I could get some help from you folks.
The problem I am having is when I play video games, usually after 20 mins or so, the
computer crashes; sometimes even real early and I can not figure out what is causing this
problem.
I have the lastest Bios and latest audio drivers and graphic card drivers and I am still
getting this crash.
Normally the computer just restarts itself or it just freezes the game and and I have to
CTRL+ALT+DEL to close or it freezes the entire comp and the keybaord wont work or mouse and
sometimes I get a blue screen and it will give me differnt error each time on the blue
screen. One of the errors i recall was IRQL_Not_Equal or something of the sort.
That is the only time it crashes, during video games. Ones I have been playing that i have
experienced the crash is: Unreal tournament 2003; NBA LIve 08; FIFA 08; Crysis. For some
reason never crashed on COD4 though.
I would really love to get this fixed after spending so much; would be nice to play for more
than 20 mins at a time.
Any ideas? PLease help.
Computer Specs Below.

Motherboard: IN9 32x-Max Wi-Fi
Bios: Latest(Version 13 I believe)
CPU: Intel Core2 Duo E6850
Memory Brand: 2xCorsair and 2xOCZ
Memory size: 4x1GB
Graphics Card: ATI Radeon HD2600 Pro 512MB PCI-E
Graphic Driver:
Power Supply: Cooler Master (650 Watt)
Storage: Seagate Sata/300 320GB
OS: Windows XP Pro with SP2

Let me know if there is any other information I can supply that maybe useful.

Sounds like a driver error, update/re-install them, or try Beta drivers

Being up to date doesn't mean they're compatible. Are you using the drivers that came with your video card or new ones you downloaded?
