Alex Sorry, it seem like ESP abilities can not locate or see your setup from remotely. Is your firewall enable or on? Since ESP is not working correctly. Then I can only assumed. Your possible problem may related to heat issue. Most likely your FX5200 do not have FAN but only the heatsink for cooling. What game is this? Normally 3D saturate type of game will cause "Fanless" card to overheat which end result will cause your PC to freeze / hang. You can try this and see if it improve abit. Runing the game while your PC cover is open. Or also try using your house hold fan and point directly to your FX5200 and see if it improve or last longer then 15 min.? If it does, then this is your problem. You will need to purchase some type of cooling system to cool your FX5200 card. CapFusion,... CapFusion,....

Alex Sounds like insufficient cooling. Could be PSU also. I had a bad PSU and it would just shut down after about 15 minutes when playing games. I thought it was cooling for a long time but after buying a new PSU it never happened again. ..
