Hi
Check your case ventilation fans,
See if there is a patch available for COD4,
Have you the latest drivers,
Can't see it being a hardware problem really,
cheers

If its always after 30-40 mins and on different levels etc, sounds like it could be overheating.

Hi,
I think that your overclock is not stable and cod4 is causing it to fail and crash,
Alter your profile for COD4 only  @ a lower  stable o/c
