OH MY FRICKIN' GOSH, HELP!! SYSTEM FREEZING!

[TechnicalNewbie]

Welp, I installed my new PSU today and. . . no more freezing! It is such a relief to know exactly what was causing the stinkin' problem, and to be able to afford to fix it, heheh. Thank you all for your help, suggestions and advice. I hope everyone else who is having a similar problem has just as simple of a remedy as me. Thanks again, everyone.

First of all, you need to know the cause of the crash. Goto System Properties (right-click my comp), goto the advanced tab, and click "Startup and Recovery." Disable automatic restart. The next time you crash, it'll give you a BSOD with the cryptic cause as far as XP is concerned. Come back here with the error and I'll see if I can help.

For what it's worth, I'm pretty sure it's probally the memory settings in the BIOS. SP2 can be pretty picky about timings and advanced mem settings, so it might be worth a try to do a little re-tweaking.
