Games slow down after a few minutes

I knew it. It was drivers issues. But not the G400.
I'll post details in hardware.

Games slow down after a few minutes

This is very strange. I thought perhaps I had some driver issues that resulted in the poor performance of my D3D games. I used the Matrox uninstaller and reinstalled the 5.13 drivers. Everything seemed good for about 5 minutes of so, then the games get choppy and almost unplayable. A reboot fixes things for another 5 minutes or so. Using my V2 in DX6 mode seems OK, so I'm thinking it must be G400 related. The only games I've got installed right now that I've tested this with are Mechwarrior 3, Freespace 2 demo, and Alien vs Predator. If anyone has any ideas, I'd love to hear'em.
