What does "system stops responding" mean exactly? The whole PC freezes? The
game freezes? What games are these, and are they meant to run on XP?
Have you checked your event logs for errors?
Did you get the device drivers from the hardware manufacturer's website (not
Windows Update)?

All that said, you might have more luck posting in m.p.windowsxp.general.
