Please help.

My computer (XP home edition sp1) persistently crashes.
Particurlalry when I play video games or use windows
media player. Virus scans come up with nothing, there
appears to be no hardware issues from device manager,
direct x is up to date and appears to be working (ie
direct draw etc)

It crashes to a blue screen with various stop error
messages being reported. It sometimes just stops dead and
I have to disconnect and then reconnect the power to
reboot the system.

I thought it may be due to overheating but do not know
how to check this.
Cheers
 
This is most likely a memory problem, I have had several
systems with this problem and have fixed it by changing
the brand and/or speed,
 
I've suspected this also. I though maybe it was memory or
paging size etc. But I do not know how to pinpoint the
problem or how to "brand/ change speed" etc
