well I've been having stability problems latly and drives haven't been recognizing at random at boot up. I checked the bios this morning and my 5volt rail is showing 4.45 which sound low. I'm running an Antec TruPower 430 so I'm sure not overloading it. my specs are below:

AMD 2100XP
KT133A MB
512mb Ram
40gb HD
80gb HD
120gb HD
DVDR
DVD/CDRW
ATI 9100 vid card.

any thoughts are apreciated and how good is antec about thier warrenty do they do advanced replacement?
 
it also might be good to add I'm having issues my HDs shutting on and off while the system is running. Also I can't get into 3d mode on my vid card.
 
:Q 4.45V?

Sounds like you may have a bum PSU. About the harddrives shutting off or whatever, perhaps they arent plugged in fully? If all else fails, I hear Antec has a great warranty/RMA service
 
nope they are pluged in I just swaped them over to an unused cable to see if if the plugs were bad and still the same issue. going to call Antec in the morning. Hopefully they have advanced replacement because I have alot of work to do on my system and no extra power supplies.
