Warcraft III problem

Hey all

Got a problem that I have not encountered before. I bought Warcraft III a few weeks ago, and everything was fine until the last couple of days. The game is starting to freeze up on me every once and awhile, and when it does crash, my desktop stays at the game resolution's 800x600 instead of reverting back to the usual desktop setting of 1024x768. I upgraded the video card's drivers (Radeon 9200se), and that did not solve the issue. Is is possible the card is overheating? It doesn't have it own fan. My other system temps are normal. I should also mention that this happens when I have been playing for a few hours straight. Thoughts? Suggestions? TIA

Well, I got a new video card today (in sig). Hopefully this will solve the issue.
