Hi,

Two quick things come to mind. First of all the power supply. The Ultra V-Series 500W PSU is not listed as the greatest supply in the world.
In addition, 500 watts is not much on the rig that you have.

Therefore, when you get a chance, open the case and look on the side of the power supply and see how many amps are listed on the 12 volt rail.

The second thing that I thought of is that you need to take an additional look at the other issues you have mentioned that it might not be. Here is a free download that will give us some good information. When you get it downloaded, post the information so we can see some of the health issues:

SensorView Pro (Free to try for like 21 days – Is excellent)

Post back with results so we can get going on this one.
