OpenGL games randomly crash computer

Whenever I try to run Unreal Tournament 2004 I have a 1/3 chance of having my computer instantly reboot after the splash screen. Trying to run Neverwinter Nights gives me a 1:8 crash ration. I don't know what logs I might look at, or what I might be able to do to solve this problem. Any thoughts? ~Steve

Hi, i'm using also this two games with my SuSE 9.1 , now without any crashes. but primerly i this reboot as you described in UT2004 always ! after installing the kintersect patch i had it sometimes, maybe with 1/3 chance or something like that ... but i had also a lot of freezes and hangups (no reboots) while using normal KDE or X applications (no OpenGL). after updating my BIOS i had no crash at all. the NWN never crashed because i installed it after my BIOS update. Maybe this information could help you ... but without some information about the hardware you're using i think it's nearly impossible to say anything more exactly. greetings, Franz Mit schönen Grüßen von Yahoo!
