Well i been playing a game online called MapleStory...(2D game) lol but around some time my computer would just freeze. i mean that the screen stops and all funny little shows up and messes up my screen. this only happens when im on that game and i been wondering why?? first i thought it was because my moniter was too hot so while i wait for something i turn my monite off too cool it down but it doesn't seem to help. i ask some of my friends and they said its cuz of my gfx card. well i have a Dell 4600 now and i assume i have a intergraded gfx card. Maplestory needs 3D acceraltion to run the game properly. i think my gfx card is Intel (R) 82865G Graphic controller.
i first thought it was that but when i play some other game such as Pristontale (3D game) it run normaly...so i was wondering if someoen could tell me whats happening.

thx

Remove or open the computer's case cover, and run an external fan.
If that fixes things, then your system is overheating.

Try updating your graphics driver and DirectX.
