Default See if you can figure this gem out
My gf had some HP computer with onboard video and 512mb ram. I upgraded her to a gig and an AGP video card (ATI 9200 or something)

Anyway, every time I launch a game or some intensive, the system reboots.

With EVEREST, I saw her 12V voltage was at 11.3V. She had a 250W PS so I got her a 450W PS. Same thing. Still only 11.3V ..

WTF?

I'm pretty sure the restarts are voltage related but.. seriously.. at 250W and 450W the 12V stays at 11.3?

WTF?
