Raidmax 400W PSU <-------- my guess at the problem

i had a problem with my computer crashing ever since i switched from my XP2100 to this P4 3.0 E...Now occasionally, the computer randomly crashed, a couple times when i was listening to music loud, and most of the time when i play games. I was told it was probably my memory at first, so i switched to PC3200 from my old PC2100, and it seemed to fix it, but it crashed again last night. the only thing in there that looks like it could cause a problem is the PSU, if you think this is it, what would be a good one to replace it with?
thanks
 
Make sure the ATX power connector is fully plugged into the motherboard. Sometimes one side of the connector won't be fully in the connector, that creates problems.
 
It's either you didn't plug things in securely or the psu. Dont forget the +3.3v connector for p4s. Also what is the SPD timigns on ur ram and what are u running it at?
 
i havent tested this ram, but i did the old ram, and i had the same problem. SPD timings on my RAM are default, and i do have the P4 connector in, i can check to make sure all wires are in all the way, and then ill get back on this
