Weird video problem

Hello,

Here are my specs:

MB - GIGABYTE GA-965P-DS3 LGA 775 Intel P965 Express ATX
CPU - Intel Core 2 Duo E4300 (1.8Ghz) OVERCLOCKED at 3.0Ghz
RAM - G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400)
Video - XFX GeForce 7900GS 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express
PSU - FSP Group SAGA+ 400R ATX12V 400W Power Supply (350 W ; 400W PEAK )http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16817104953
HDD - Seagate 320GB
1 DVDROM
1 USB PCI 6 slots extender

Computer was working great for more than a year until 2 days ago. Monitor goes blank randomly after 1,2,5,10+ minutes (all fans continue to spin, power lights on) and computer crashes (looks like);-). It happens not only in Win XP, but during the Win start-up or even when I change settings in BIOS (when I set all to defaults). When Win Xp starts and monitor goes off almost all the times PC crashes, but sometimes it's still operating (I can hear the music/sounds). It's not the montor problem, cuase I tried it on another montior, and the same thing happens.

The temperatures for Video show 53C IDLE/59C under load, for CPU 47C IDLE/ 59C LOAD.
I reinstalled windows, tried to reseat the videocard, removed 1 stick of RAM, nothing helps.
I wonder what can be the problem here? Video , PSU, CPU, MB, RAM?

Thank you.
