Hi, I visit this forum often and have solved many of my problems looking at posts here. I have never posted here before and registered here only today. The reason being all of my earlier problems have been posted alredy by someone else and solved. I have always found solutions, mostly a Google search leads me here.
But now i have a problem which is common but with certain specific aspects. Here it is:
I have an Enterage Power3 400W PSU, it is a company from India and i dont think it is very reputed.
and the following config:
ASUS M2N-MX SE
AMD Athlon X2 64 4800+
2x2GB DDR2 667MHz Corsair
Sony DVD RW
Segate 160GB SATA
WD 500GB SATA
BIG GeForce 8600GT
and something more that matters for the PSU
1xCPU fan, 1xGPU fan (obvious)
4x Chasis fans
USB mouse
PS2 keyboard
Other USB devices on remaining 7 ports
Vista Home premium 32 bit SP2
I have problems with my registry going corrupt every 7-8 days, pc freezing, slowing down, BSOD, unexpected shutdowns etc.
The rig is about 2 years old, and i had only the 160gb hdd then with xp and was rarely used. i installed vista mid september and had these corruption problems and had to reinstall vista a few times. so i thought ther's something wrong with the hdd so i added the 500GB and put vista on it. but the same problems seem to be occuring.
I read on a forum that the PSU may not be enough. Please advice me on this matter.
