My System

P5VD1-X

Basic Info for this board:


Intel LGA775 Pentium 4 CPU
Dual-Core CPU
VIA PT880 Ultra
Dual-Channel DDR 400/333
PCI Express & AGP8X combo solution
SATA with RAID 0, 1, JBOD

Without doing the calculations and not knowing the type or quality of your existing PSU, I would say that it's way under rated.
When you checked out the PSU on another computer, did you note whether it had the same specs as your PC? If it was just a swap it & see then it'spossible that the other Pc wasn't a power eater like tis one appears tobe.
What graphics card do you have ? What else is on board?
I would suggset that you check out the true power requirement of your mobo & additional components but I doubt if anything other than a GOOD QUALITY SUPPLY of at least 550W will suffice.
