Default Faulty Videocard? [6200]

hate this, my geforce 6200 256mb card, resets my pc everytime I try play a game, Doom 3 used to work fine, 2 months latter i reinstalled, it was loading when i clicked new game,then bang,pc restarted, just shut off.

The card is only around 3 months new, is it already dieing or is this a driver thing, because I have a fresh windows install, and the latest drivers from Nvidia are installed.

Even in the settings for my card, it has settings for doom 3, i tried those to...didnt work.

Out of the 8 pc games I got, NONE work now, they either glitch hard or the pc restarts.





UPDATE: I just tried older drivers,i uninstalled the new latest drivers then installed the drivers off the cd that came in the box, same thing happened, also i tried some other games, they ALL reset the f'ing pc, this is killing me now. still under warranty so if i get help ill return it tommorow.

goto control panel, system, advanced ,start up and recovery and untick auto restart and give us details from the Blue Screens of Death you will get instead of the reboot

i tried the pc in safe mode,and one of my games actually played lol, so i went back and ran dxdiag, and i experimented, i turned off AGP Texture Accelaration, and ****, Urbersoldier launched and loaded, clicking new game didnt reset the pc, but during a cut scene, froze and i had to turn off the pc manually lol, so that went no where, but i was amazed strengh & honour played for awhile with AGP T.A off, but then i tried again..and pc restarted.

I turned off auto restart after failure and got this blue screen ( after awhile,it rebooted a few times with no blue screen at first )

heres the blue screen
