temperature problem question

Hi,

I have a 6600 GT graphic card and after 20 minutes of play, my pc go to
shutdown. I checked the temperature of cpu, hardisk, memory, mainboard but
these were normal! How can I tweak my graphic card to check the temperature
? I try to install NVTweak or Forceware Coolbits 2.0, but in the NVIDIA
PROPERTIES does not appear the the temperature dialog.


Help me please

Some card manufacturers disable the temperature monitor in the video card
BIOS as a means of limiting the overclocking that might occur if users could
check their temperatures. It is possible to unlock this feature, I did on
my 6600 standard AGP card. Post back with card make etc or do a Google.com
search.
