constant restarts!!! help it's not the power supply
ok here are my specs:
Gigabyte GA-7VAXP
WD WESTERN 80GB SE
maxtor 40gb 5400 rpm drive
256MB crucial DDR PC2700
sk-6+ Vantec Thermoflow fan
LEADTEK WINFAST A280 GEFORCE4 TI 4200 128mb 8x
sony 48x/24x/48x CDRW
ok my computer as been running fine for about 4 months, recently i lapper my heatsink which did drop the the temp by 4 dregrees or so. about 1 day after i lapper it kept freezing when i tried to burn a cd (when it normailed the tracks in nero), then it started to restart and it has been doing so a lot, at first i thought it could be the power supply so i took out the 40gb hdd and it's still doing the same things, i still think it could be the power supply, the weird thing is that it always restarts when i do a disk clean up for the c drive why does it do that ? could it be windows?
i only want to buy a new powersuppy if i have too.( i have very little cash)
my current one is this one :Linky

+5Vsb +4.940
+12V +12.990
