Well, you hit the nail on the head. It was the power supply. The power supply I had in the machine was a 400W powmax that came with the case. I've never really messed with power supplies, so my questions might sound a little novice.
Firstly, could it be something as simple as replacing a fuse? Should I even try to open up my power supply and mess around with it?
Should I look at getting a different power supply? This is what I'll be running on the power supply-
K8n-e Deluxe mobo
Athlon 64 3200+
ati all-in-wonder 9000
d-link 802.11b wireless network card
2 hard drives (one 13 gig, one 40 gig)
a dvd-rom
a cd-rw burner
3 cooling fans (one has a nifty cold cathode on it)
Is that enough to overpower a 400 watt power supply? And if my power supply is shot, what should I be looking for? (that's relatively affordable)
Thinking about picking up this one:
