Okay, I'm at a loss for what to do. My drivers are at the latest, I have an Nvidia 7600 GS.

I have run a full system virus scan and cleaned my registry.

ANY game I play will freeze and my computer will stop responding after about 10-15 minutes of playing, sometimes less.

I reinstalled my copy of stalker, freezes, FEAR freezes, The Witcher Enhanced Edition the opening cutscene doesnt finish before freezing.

I've got no idea what to do and could REALLY use some help guys!

I think it's your RAM, this happened to me when I had faulty RAM, my games would freeze, because a certain part of my RAM sticks were faulty. I would see about replacing your RAM sticks, and you should be ok then.

If you have Vista go to Control Panel then Administrative Tools, then click Memory Diagnostic, and let it test your Ram when you restart, if you it finds a Fault that will confirm my suspicions.

Also check you CPU temperatures with CoreTemp (google this/ download it), and also it may be your GPU.

But I'm fairly certain its a RAM related issue.
