Hmm, if it's in games then it looks like it might be your graphics card. Do you know which model you have?
ATI Radeon 8500 128mb ( I bought this card specially for Morrowind )

I already download the thing however I don't seem to know how to actually run it. Currently i'm running memtest and so far until now no error pops up.

would be guessing PSU. How many fans does your computer have?
The PSU is 4 years old ( used since the computer is bought ). I have 4 fans, 1 blowing into my grahpic card, 1 attach to the casing, 1 blowing the hd, 1 blowing the cpu. The graphic card itself got it's own little fan.

I've been very tempted to do a hd reformat and reinstall everything. Would this solve anything?
