Problem:

While playing Warcraft 3: TFT while on battle.net, during gameplay it would randomly freeze and I would be forced to hard reset. Sometimes after the hard reset, my computer wouldn't be responsive and make a high pitched beep that would go on and off. I usually just leave it alone for about 5 mintues and I would be able to regularly start it up

Most people say it's because of overheating but when I play games like Team Fortress 2, World of Warcraft, or more intensive games, my computer seems to work perfectly fine. Even for long hours, while WC3 usually only lasts about 1 and a half hours before freezing.

Tried Solutions ( None Worked ):

-Checking insides and cleaning them due to overheating
-Run as administrator
-Change swap ( virtual partition ) file size
-Reinstalling

OS: Vista 32

Please help!
