What motherboard are you using?
Is this a new prob? Or did the games once work on this system? If they never worked, I'm thinking one possible problem might be the drivers, esp. for the graphics card. Hang in there.

I'd say, judging by the product tag, that you have a PCChips motherboard, which is bottom-of-the-barrel as far as quality goes. That is probably the source of your problems. Try updating video driver though.

I have to be brutally honest - the right way to update that motherboard is to replace it with a quality brand. Trying to keep a PC Chips integrated board stable is almost impossible.

Those kinds of errors usually indicated bad RAM. Try swapping out your sticks and see if the problem goes away.
