    Could be the drivers themselves. I'd check to make sure you have the latest video card drivers off Via Arena.

    2nd, check to make sure you have the latest patches for the games causing you trouble.

    3rd, if your CPU or video card is overheating, that can be the cause of crashes and lockups. Make sure any fans on the CPU and, if it has one, video card.

    4th, if those don't fix it, and even if they do, I'd look at a solution from nVidia or ATi.

    That's not surprising. It's not a real high-performance video card. Fine for desktop stuff, but that's about it.
