Its not a hardware problem - all new games run perfectly, even CrySis 2 on DX10. Passed Prime95 stress test: 34 tests in 1 hour 33 min - 0 errors, 0 warnings.

CPU -AMD Athlon64 X2 5000+ 2.66 GHz 512 L2 Cache
MoBo -ASUS M2N X-PLUS
RAM - 2GB Dual A-Data 1066 MHz
HDD - WC 640 GB 32MB Cache///Hitachi 320 GB
VGA - SAPPHIRE ULTIMATE HD3870 512MB GDR4
PSU - FoxCon 400W UltraQuiet
your MB has on board video NVIDIA GeForce6100 /nForce430 Chipset you want to take away the HD3870 and try the on-board display instead?

@metal005 it's not a hardware problem and it's not a compatibility issue.

Here are my test results:
1)) Enabled Motion2 but was eating 90% of CPU so I turned it OFF
2)) Enabled and disabled Best Quality in playback opt. nothing changed
3)) Enabled Force Video Overlay and every time I start Splash windows switched to win basic (turns windows AERO OFF). Played several video files and there was no shutdowns.
4)) Disabled Force video Overlay and immediately windows crashes.

Conclusion: to me looks like Windows Aero and Splash Pro are not working well. I will continue to use Force Video Overlay, but will be nice to have Aero when using SplashPro. Tell me if you have plans to work this out :)

The conclusion is not so sure, to check this you can make another test:
- disable force video overlay and close Splash
- righ click on Splash shortcut and select compatibility tab, disable Aero with the option available in this tab

Splash should run with disabled Aero, please check if this works fine.
