More games than normal have been CTDing for me. Half-Life, jDoom, and the Tony Hawk's demo my brother installed (damn you wee bull) are all CTDing like never before. Norton ran a virus scan with newest definitions, came up clear. Running Ad-Aware now.

What is wrong?

EDIT: I will defrag after Ad-Aware finishes.

Low free system space appears to have been the cause, I've deleted a few old games and it runs fine now. I went from 2% to 6%.

Haha, I totally get this same problem every couple of months. I think "fuck, my PC is dying! Fuck!", then I notice I have 500MB left on C:.

Wise Martyr speaks the truth. Create a partition, and place your page file on it. Much better performance if you don't have a GB of RAM.
