Right heres the problem:

I can play most games, Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, Silent Hunter 3, SWAT 4 and Half Life 2.

But it seems that the older games: Operation Flashpoint, Medal of Honour Pacific Assault, Deus Ex: Invisable War and even Call of Duty 2! crash between 5 and 10 minutes of gameplay. any ideas?

My set-up is:
AMD 3000+ 2.14 Ghz Processor
Ati Raedeon 9800 pro 256mb
Audigy 2 Soundcard
And 1.5 gig of RAM

I have direct x 9.0c and the latest Ati drivers, the soundcard drivers cannot be updated for some reason.

If anyone has any advice or help they can give me it'd be much appreciated

Thanks
