My comp overheats during graphically intensive games, but it doesn't crash the whole system. It just crashes the game to the desktop like you said, and it cools down again. I think it does it as a safeguard. Halo 2 Vista isn't very graphically intensive, but it's not optimized like it should be. Download "speedfan" and it'll detect any temperature monitoring circuits that you have, so you can set it to do graphs plus display a temp reading in the tray.
