Once again having computer problems...

Some of you may recall me almost a month ago. I was having problems with my computer shutting itself down and locking up in windows. Everybody seemed to believe it was my raidmax PSU, so I purchased a fortron bluestorm 500w psu and upgraded my memory as well for the heck of it. For 2 weeks, my computer ran GREAT, and then today came, and it did the old stuff. 3 times it locked up, 1 time it just turned itself off (and proceeded to turn itself back on after 5 seconds). Any ideas? Could it have to do with the way I have my harddrives set up? I have a S-ATA HD, and an IDE Harddrive...maybe there's something wrong there?

Any help is appreciated, thanks.
 
It is possible that it is a heat problem with the cpu or the vid card. Do you monitor case or cpu temps? Have an audible alarm set in the bios for cpu temp? HSFs on the vid card and cpu clean? Tried running with the side panel off?
