Trivial question, but is everything plugged in all the way? If the cord is loose, it may cause that problem. Also, does this only happen in games or when you listen to a CD in the tray as well? Lastly, are you using the most up-to-date games and the original game discs when you play?

Possibly ... are you using your original game discs? Sometimes cracks can cause in-game errors

That is a good start Farcry had lots of glitches in the 1.0 version is better you update now to 1.3 and the other patches are mainly for multiplayer only don't use the 1.2 patch because was recalled for massive bugs
