This is the spec for your processor http://products.amd.com/en-us/DesktopCPUDetail.aspx?id=548&f1=AMD+Athlon%E2%84%A2+X2&f2=6000%2b&f3=&... and the maximum temperature should be 70 deg C so it looks like it is overheating under load and this may be part of the problem

I don't know your degree of technical expertise but these are the steps I would go through
1. Clean all the dust and fluff from the CPU cooler and the intake filter for the case
2. Check that the case fans are working properly and in the correct direction
3 . Check the temperatures under load
If the temperatures are still too high then
Here is where you need to know what you are doing
4. Remove the CPU cooler and clean the CPU and cooler mating faces with a proper cleaning solution so that you have two absolutely clean surfaces
5 Reseat the heat sink using Arctic Silver 5 in accordance with the instructions
