Computer gets blue screen crashes?

i purchased an msi 8800GTS 320/320 pci-e card from newegg along with a Foxconn 945P7AA-8EKRS2

I reformatted my disk after i installed the mobo and video card installed the newest drivers from the nvidia website for the 8000 series

now whenever i play world of warcraft about once an hour my computer will get a blue screen error and then restart. the computer restarts automatically once the blue screen hits, so i cant read what it says.

i tryed reformatting again and that didn't help. Im not running anything elts, its brand new reformat and i still get the error.

Also once I have blew a 550W and a 500W PSU with this new card, and i just purchased a 700W PSU and its been holding up for a few weeks now.

Any thoughts?

Re: Computer gets blue screen crashes?

Welcome to tsf.

What brand are all three powersupplies? 500 and 550w were not enough for the older 8800's they need 600 to 650w.
