A huge range of things could be causing them.
When you say you can play fear, is that at lowest settings?
Try running the apps without any overclocking and see if it still happens.
I also don't know if the OS could be causing it as I have had no experience with WMC.
Does it happen with other source games? HL:2, HL2: DM, DOD: S?
P.S. Still Alive.

i'm playing it at medium high settings and i'm currently downloading Half Life 2 , and HL2 DM
I tried running all those programs without overclocking and there is no difference
Edit: I have tried HL2 Deathmatch and i have gotten the same problem as source
Also i had Windows Media Center before and i could play most of my games no problems.
I had
Intel Pentium 4 1.7Ghz Oc'ed to 1.85
256 (128 * 2) PC 800 RAMBUS 800MHZ
Same Hard Drive As Above
MSI Geforce 2 MX400 Pro /w TV Out
Open Steam, right click CounterStrike Source, click properties, then click Set Launch Options, and put this in there: -dxlevel 70 +mat_forcehardware sync 0 -w 1024
Then click ok and start up CSS. Try that.
