So i have a little problem lately going on with my PC.

Every time I'm playing a (good looking) game it completely freezes and I can't do anything anymore, so I have to reboot my computer:(

When my lil bro plays SRO it freezes.

When I play Batlle for Middle-Earth II it freezes.

I downloaded all the Direct.X drivers (i think) and i also downloaded the latest nVidia drivers.

Anyone can help me please? It is soooo annoying.

do u have an hp pavilion or nething remotely similar? throw that shit out immediately.

give us ur cpu specs, might help us out. though if ur pc's freezing, most likely overheating.

Yes, I have a HP Pavilion t880.

But it's weird, because I didn't have any problems with it before i reinstalled it.

Try cleaning the fans from dust, usually the freezing comes with the hardware overheat which causes computer either freeze or restart automatically to prevent damaging the hardware...

Try checking the temperature of your GFX, CPU while in idle first and than if you see they are too hot be sure to clean your comp :P...
