   The problem is that often when playing a game, the video on the screen will 
   stop but the audio will continue.

I don't have your hardware, but I just wanted to tell you that I see
this exact symptom in MK3 sometimes, near the end of the game while
fighting Shao Kahn (this is the most active foe in MK3, so it probably
taxes the CD-ROM the most).  I have a Panasonic/Matsushita 562 2x
CD-ROM hanging off a Media Vision Pro Sonic 16 sound card.

I wouldn't be surprised if this was a Windoze 95 problem, either.
