If this is only happening when leaving a 3D game then I would suspect drivers. I bet you have a VIA chip set. If not then I am wrong. Make sure you have the latest Video card and chip set drivers. Worst case scenario would be bad memory on your video card. That can only be fixed by replacing the card. I highly doubt it is memory but something to think about.
