It could be possible I guess...

My personal situation:
The mobo is a couple of years old, I have lockups whenever it comes to
apps that need a lot of video-power, like games and even some movies.
I tried a couple of video cards (all nvidia tough) without seeing
any real changes.
The problem occurred in windows as well (I had it installed to play
some games) and it didn't matter if I used the nv or binary drivers,
after a couple of minutes the machine just locks up.
The only explanation I have is that it's some kind of mobo-problem, but
now that I just use nv and don't play games anymore it happens rarely
when watching movies or something.

I heard that logs don't help much in cases like this and that consoles
connected via serial cables would be more helpful, but I haven't tried
that.
