What would cause a computer game to crash to a black screen after five minutes?

Q. So you've got this computer game and you've been playing it for a while and you've never had any problems with it crashing before, it's always ran fine. Your computer meets all the system specs. Your fans are working fine so it's not overheating. Your drivers are up to date.

So keeping that in mind, what would cause a computer game to suddenly start crashing to a black screen after only five minutes of playing it when it's run fine before?

A. Taking all of what you said into consideration, I would start looking into any updates that were recently performed on the computer (i.e., updates for the operating system, drivers, etc...) to see if perhaps an update or a driver update could be causing the issue.


How Can I Improve Game Experience on my Laptop?
Q. Okay, I have an Asus Laptop and I want to get a couple of computer games on here.

Specs:
Runs on Windows 7
AMD E-350 Processor 1.60GHz
RAM: 4.00 (3.60 usable)
64-bit Operating System.

Keep in mind I am 15-year-old JUST getting into gaming, keep it simple please.
I have GameBooster.
I have Slender: The Eight Pages, but it's a little slow. Not horribly so, but it will randomly lag.

Games I would like to play:
Slender: The Arrival
SCP Containment Breach
And so on.
Is there any way I can play them fairly smoothly? Is there any way I could hook my computer up to my Xbox 360 to play games? I just want the game to move relatively quickly, I don't care so much about graphics.

Any solutions OTHER than buying a new computer are welcomed. I DO have an old desktop, but it is very, very old, I think it's at least 2005-2008ish. Is there anything I can do to make Ye Olde Dionsaur Computer work??

Much love,
Kat

A. It's a laptop... other that tweaking game settings individually, you're stuck with its game performance. All laptops have always been mediocre for gaming (compared self-built desktop PCs), although that's slowly changing, unfortunately.

The only things you might do (which won't improve gaming) is add more RAM (impossible on most utrabooks), replace hard drive with a SSD (sometimes it's labor intensive), and clean-up junk that runs at startup like IM's.

The free Slender uses the Unity 3D engine which wasn't designed for performance. Old PC: if it has 4GB and a Core2 Duo, Core2 Quad, it's usable, otherwise don't waste your money, especially old overpriced DDR2 RAM.
