I got a problem with my PC though that I need help with.
I have a P4, 2.4 Ghz Processor speed, System model is VIA M266 . Anyway, no big deal about that. Problem is, my PC keeps on
hanging most of the time, at no particular interval. Sometimes after I
switch it on it hangs after 1 hour, sometimes 10 minutes,30 or even
after 2 minutes. Weird thing though is that, when am playing games on
it Like GTA or King of the Road, Freelancer and the rest, it
doesn't hang, even if am playing for 3,4 or 10 hours. Which is
strange, I have tried checking my RAM, Fan, Heatsink, and they all
seem fine.Though I got an Onboard VGA card, I tried putting in an AGP
which has better graphics, but it's still the same thing, so I ruled out
the Graphics card. I am now suspecting it could be my Power Supply ATX
2.03 with an output of 300W model 300x. Do I need a power supply of
more than 300W, lets say 350w or 400W? or what could be the problem.
Because when it hangs everything is running, even the fans. So everytime when it does that I have to press the restart button and start
all over again which is really becoming a pain. I really need your
help.
Thanks
