Pc crashes and monitor shutdown

as youve surmised - check your irq's. generally its not propituous to have
graphics and sound cards sharing between themselves.
The monitor shutdown sounds normal - it thinks the pc's off probably or in
standby or whatever. As already suggested - sounds also like a cpu heating
problem. Check you have good in-front and out-back fans going and a good
cpufan/heatsink combo.
