Is something dieing or am I having software problems?

Lately CS:S has been screwing up.

Firstly, the comp froze for a couple seconds then it resumed but, everything turned grey and all the text was unreadable.

Then the next day I got a blue screen in while playing CS:S, no warning for it either... it just happened.

Now today, CS:S freezes the exits and gives me this error.

Does anyone have any idea? I hope my video card isn't dieing, my last card did similar things and then died a month later.

As far as I've noticed. Yea, only CS:S does it.

Though, when my last card was dying. I could play DoW but, mothing else even though DoW would have artifacts.

stress test your vid card with other 3D games, you might want to use 3dmark too
