The dreaded power supply question...
Probly the hardest problem to diagnose but I'll give it a go. My rig has recently been randomly bluescreening. It had previously been overclocked (e8400 @ 4 ghz with very reasonable temps, 55 @ load) but I then put it back down and ran prime95 and all was good. The BSOD's occur at completely random times, most of them when my system is doing basically nothing. The gpu is not overclocked and I have checked for viruses and nothing seems awry. I don't really have any other systems to cross reference the parts with. I've never really had power supply problems and the PSU is a good corsair model. Does this sound like a bad PSU problem?
