Macbook Pro 13 i5 2011 freezes in games

Recently i found out that my mac will freeze when i tried to play baldur's gate 1 & 2. I got it early march and i haven't changed anything. When i open the games my mac will freeze completly , i can only hear the music playing and sometimes move the cursor. I can't do anything else except forced shutdown. I didn't play any games so far thats why i found this problem now(except starcraft 2 which runs
fine). There is a big thread about this here but is mostly for 15' and 17' models. A friend told me that the game may not support the graphic card. But this also happened once when i was playing Amnesia the dark descent. Is there something wrong or i just can't play these games? I mean they are old isn't supposed to handle them? Also when the freeze occurs my mac isn't hot or anything and the fans were normal.

Thanks for your answer. I believe this is the case for the freezing since other than that the macbook runs fine and plays any newer games. Maybe an update in the future could fix that problem. It's a shame though since these games are awesome.

I played starcraft 2 and Amnesia the dark descent. The games that froze my mac was baldur's gate 1&2. I havent tried to play another game so i dont know what will happen but i believe they will run fine. Maybe someone else with the same macbook could try some older games and post results.

Was running ok, fans wasnt to high and mac wasnt hot. Except one time which fans went crazy and mac froze. Other than that it runs smoothly in medium settings. So far no problem with this game.

Does anyone know if i can play older games such as baldur's gate series with CrossOver Games or again they will freeze my mac?

Just tried to run the game on CrossOver Game but again major freeze and had to shutdown my mac. It's obviously at this point that macbook 2011 13' cant run this game or older games that cant support Intel HD 3000 graphics
