Ok, my friends power supply burned out, it was 300 watts. He went to the PC shop to get a new one, and he got a 400 watt. Now the modem (dialup one) is now dead. He went to the store to get a new one, now it works fine. But now the PC freezes, and does not show the cd rom and cd rom burner. Its not showing in my computer or device manager. But they do have power to them, and the modem (dialup one) is not present. Like its not even connected to the mother board. Now can the issue be power surges? Faulty PSU? And if i restart the pc sometimes it will install the modem and show it and show the cd rom drive and burner. and the modem will work, he will go online and everything is fine. then he would shutdown the pc (correctly) and then the modem is not there again, and the cd rom and burner are not showing. Also with the new PSU at IDLE at the bios system temperature it reads 58-59c then 2 mins later 60-61 then about 5-6 mins 62-63. He has a intel processor 4 3.4ghz. Before the old PSU went dead it ran just fine. Did not get that hot. idle was like 45-50 full load 55-57 or 58. So wut is the issue?
