I'm in love, for the 2 min of game play at a time (befor my pc crashes) its the best.
I have been working on making a map for cs:s since i cant really get anywhere in hl2 untill i figure out my pc. any ideas for a cool map, I've started a under ground temple (dust theme) where the t's start outside, and fight to the main room a few floors down, where they have to bomb, cts are temple security.
I'm currently running my ati 9200 se and i still have problems (it does put up some nice graphics will little to no lag befor it crashes) so my geforce fx 5700 se oc is not causing it. I just bought a new case with a real airflow design for a change, it should help with heat, but untill i get xp (I bought it but has not shipped) i'm stuck.

Ya that does sound like a typical heat issue, maybe try playing with your side panel off and a fan blowing in there, Ive heard people do this and lower there temp substancially, I wouldn't reccomend doing it much though.
I don't have experience with your vga cards but hl2 is no where near as demanding a game as say Doom3 so I can't see you having to much trouble. Also try scaling down your graphic options and see if that stabalizes it.
Im glad you brought up cooling though, Im getting a liquid cooling system for christmas >
