Does this only happen in counter strike source? Have you tested if this happens on any other game? It could be your CPU is overheating, or something is.

Maybe conflicting software...?
Try Disk Defraging if you haven't in a long time
Update all drivers
Try setting all the settings on low.
Try closing everything thats unnecessary like msn, internet browsers, hell, even explorer.exe anything thats no use during gameplay.
And see if it runs longer than usual.

I doubt it most of this should fix the problem, but its worth a shot.
