Hi
Just upgraded from a 4200ti to a pivexpiew 5800 and when i try and run a
game or benchmark it looks up about every 30 seconds for about 5 secs then
carrys on

System is the following

Asus A7n8x V2
XP2500+
1 gig ddr (2 sticks)
3X120gig drives
2 x dvd roms (writer/reader)
4 80mm fans
350w powerpack
Windows XP Sp2

Is a 350w power pack enough for this ?

Any ideas what could be causing it ? ?

Thanks in advance for any info

Your PSU should be enough for your TI. As far as your lockups, Have you
tried testing your memory? Also, what drivers are you using?
