Hello and Welcome to PCHF

What are the games you installed? Are they Vista compatible? What are the specs of your pc?

Hello moonpigeon, welcome to PCHF. I would like to say its because you have vista, but thats not very productive. Lol. Ok, what system are you running? And what games are you trying to play?

Just my 2 cents..

When I see games and windows crashing in the same sentence I always look at heat..

Download speedfan as well as what the others suggested and let us know what your temps are
Download SpeedFan - Access temperature sensor in your computer
