This started first when i played Left 4 Dead. Didn't lag at all, but then my FPS drop to 8 - 13 and it was unplayable. Same happened in BF2. I decied to reinstall my Vista. After installation, i installed L4D. Same FPS drop. Tried install BF2, same FPS drop. Then my "Windows Experience Index" RAM section was before installation 4.4 and now 2.7. I've tried to install new drivers, my pagefile is 20 gigs ;D. Every game i play, even a flash game in internet, i can play for few mins and the FPS drop. I really need help with this.

I have an Aspire aswell but have never experienced this, do you have a laptop or desktop?
You installed over your other Vista so thats probably why the ram usage went up and the amount of available ram lowered.
So do a complete uninstall of Vista (both of them) and reinstall it.
Also, update your drivers, it may help.

If it is a laptop, I would guess it could be a heat issue. Could you try running some type of temperature monitor while you are playing a game?
