I just added a hard drive, an ati aiw 7500 grapics card, and a usb hub to my system. Now every free hours my explorer crashes, and i cant get it down to whats doing it. There is never the same stuff running, other then stuff i have used for many yrs. Anyway i got to thinking maybe im out of power, im running a 400 watt ps. here is my stats

ati all in wonder 7500 64mb graphics card
io-magic sound card
ethernet card

Floppy drive
4 case fans
4-port usb hub

when i use the formulas found in these forums i come up with about 350 watts needed, plus the 1.5 thing. Oh the ps is stock antec sx1040b 400watt ps. If anyone thinks it might be something please tell me that too..haha. Im about ready to take all the new stuff back.
