I have a Cheiftec 420 watt power supply. The temperature/volatage monitor program that came with my Dragon Plus motherboard shows that the voltage varies constantly. For example, the -12 reading typically goes from a low of -11.86 to a high of -12.27, back and forth a couple times a second. I've seen the +12 reading jump to over 14 momentarily. The other readings fluctuate too, most not as widely as the -12 and +12 readings. Is this fluctuation normal?
I am getting random spontaneous reboots a couple times a day and wonder if the voltage fluctuation could be the cause, where the voltage may occassionally vary beyond some limit that the motherboard can tolerate.
