Ok, i gotta type quick before this freezes again. I got ridd of old 235w ps and got new 300w one. No not amd approved. Just got new pc, amd 1.2ghz. Old ps ran windows fine but i had to underclock to 1000mhz so thats why i got new ps. With this new one the cpu runs much hotter, and is freezing constantly, even at less that 1.2ghz, WTF could the problem be?

stability problems can sometimes be attributed to a bad psu. i had problems running my 1.2ghz @ 1.466ghz with a 250w psu because it crashed and frozen often also. i upgraded to a antec 350w and those problems went away.
