Hello,
I'm new here and I apologize if what I'm asking seems obvious to you more knowledgable people, but I hope that someone can still be kind enough to offer opinions or suggestions with my problem.
In the last few months, my computer has started to freeze up or the monitor would go blank both requiring me to reboot or the system would reboot on its own; sometimes with the blue screen of death and a wpfb_nv4_disp message or a something message. I've gotten the latest diver for my Quadro FX 3450 card, I've tested the hard drive using chkdsk, tested the Ram, checked all connections to be sure they are seated correctly, cleaned out all the dust, but it still happens. While searching the net for possible solutions, I discovered CPUID amazing utilities for finding problems. Perfect for even noobie PC do-it-yourselfers.
The HWMonitor (free version) has showed me what looks like a problem with my Power Supply, especially Sensor #6. I've attached a txt dump minus the acpi info since it was beyond allowed attachment size. I bought this larger 485W replacement power supply in June 2006. I'm running Win XP Home, have 4 GB DDR SDRAM and dual core AMD Athlon 64 3800+ processors. From PC Wizard 2008, I've also discovered that everything seems to be running hotter then it should be. I just ordered a rear cooling fan. Before ordering a new Power Supply, I hope someone would please give me their opinion if they think it sounds like the power supply or if maybe it's something else. Thanks for your time and assistance.
