Power Supply Issure...HELP!
Hi, all...this is my first post on this board, so i'll try not to seem too newbish.
I just upgraded my 300w Antec psu with an Allied/Foxconn 450w unit. Things seemed copecetic until I put a new CPU in the rig. The system ran fine with a 1.4 t-bird in, but acted very bizarre with an XP 2400+. My monitor would just go into power saving mode, like it wasn't getting a signal, when the comp got a heavy load put on it. The hard drive light would still blink as if the comp was still pluggin away, but with no output to the screen, i can't tell. Here are the specs on the system.
MSI KT3-Ultra MOBO
AMD Athlon XP 2400+
2x512 DDR 2700
40 gig WD 7200 RPM
120 gig Maxtor 7200 RPM
10X DVD-ROM
48x16x48 CDRW
ATI Radeon 9000 pro
ATI TV Wonder
1 NIC
Soundblaster Live
2 Quad LED 80mm case fans
1 cold cathode light
Speeze CPU fan (only 2500 rpm)
