Hello and welcome to TSF
your Video card is for sure the problem, first of all it's an integrated card in your motherboard, so it's not meant for games, so you could play old games but not new ones
on the freezing thing, I think it could be that your video card is overheating, Nvidia built-in cards are known that they overheat a lot
download SIW from my sig, open it and choose "Sensors" under "Hardware"
check the temps.
play the game for about 10 to 15 mins and before the game freezes, minimize it and recheck the temperatures again.
please post both temp states (idle, under stress)

So if you want to play games, you need to get a better Video Card with a good Power Supply to handle the PCIe Video Card

as I suspected
the Nvidia temps are extremely high! they could fry the hole board anytime
what you should do is to get another system fan to your PC case and put your case in a good air circulating area, for now open the side case and keep it open so some air could enter and keep watching those temps closely
as I suggested above, to play games just get a new Video Card and a good Power Supply
