Well as you guess, your problem is your other devices. When you overclock
to anything above 66 on that board, you also overclock the PCI bus. Some
cards don't mind, other's do. The fact that it is crashing in graphics
programs leads me to believe that your video card is the cause. It could be
a heat problem, try throwing a cooling fan on the main chip of the video
card and see if that helps. TTYL
