yeah, especially when u are running stuffs tat needs more power than ur psu can supply
usual culprit will be gc, especially the high end 1

here's the scenario....My compaq PC comes with 350W PSU, with 1 harddisk, and 1 CD ROM.
Myself upgraded:
1. Additional 1 Harddisk
2. Additional 1 DVDR-ROM
3. Additional 1 PCI Modem
4. latest addition : long hours of torrents

I used to experience "hang" within the Windows Explorer. now, with my brother constant torrent, the whole system hang. I have to actually reset the whole system.

So, confirm PSU to be blamed??

What brand PSU was that? i opened my brother's PC (hewlet packard) and saw FSP installed inside there.. real power on ordinary PC...
ur PSU might causing the prob, and maybe not..

I forgot the name already, i'll check back when i go back home this weekend. it's definitely not real power and it's also not from any famous brand that i know.
