Random Crashes on my Mobile 2600 and ABIT NF7-S v2.0 board

[xpkwali]

Hi all I recently upgraded from my old 1400 Tbird setup to this new setup and it seems to be randomly crashing multiple times whenever I do anything substantial and I think it maybe a PSU issue. I am using a Antec PP-403SX PSu rated for 400Watts but it doesnot have the 12V 4pin connector so doing so without it. I am running a AMD 2600 Mobile Processor and 1gig of Muskin 3200 DDR ram on a ABIT NF7-S board. I have it setup at 200x11 at the moment. Please let me know what yall think might be an issue. I have seen almost all of these processors go to about that range at least so sticking with that level. Please tell me your thoughts as to how I cna try to fix this issue. Thanks.

Well first of all have u ran prime 95 on it? If not you probablly wanna do that. That will max out your voltages and your heat and if you have a hardware monitor of some variety it can tell you alot. If u are overclocking which you are you need that 4 pin connector as well. That is an optional connector i beleive but if your drawing alot of power for your system you most deffinately need it. I would think it is most deffinately the psu issue. I just got this chip and its running rock solid at 200X12 @1.68v same MB as you no crashing whatsoever. Another thing would be to check into your ram if you dont have stock timings on it change them to stock. More than anything i would suggest a new psu 450 watts min and make sure it has that 4 pin connector most antecs come with it standard now.
