Your RAM is extremely low for playing most/all of those games. If you have page filing disabled, as soon as you run out of RAM, your computer will do stuff like that. Even with page filing enabled, most of the time it only adds half of what you already have, which would give you 786MBs of total possible RAM+Page file. That is extremely close to what EQ uses with max settings turned on.

It could also be that you just have bad RAM and when a certain section of the RAM gets used, it crashes your PC. PCs rebooting like that are normally hardware issues. It could be that your system is overheating, or videocard is starting to give out, or any large number of possibilities.
