Perhaps your new card is too powerful for your power supply. At 2D mode, before a game, its power draw is low BUT as soon as it goes into 3D mode (games), its power draw shoots up and overloads the power supply. Auto shutdown is a safety feature of power supplies when it detects an overload.
Better upgrade your power supply. Get one with strong +12V rail or rails.

Could be a problem with device drivers , hardware or software . This problem can be solved by uninstalling new softwares, updating device drivers and making minor configuration changes . From http://fixit.in/bluescreenofdeath.html
