I recently purchased a Gainward 512mb 7800GS+ (AGP 7900GT), but I have one problem.

At completely and utterly random times, my PC emits a 'click' sound from the inside, then the screen flashes blue, then restarts, with the videocards BIOS telling me it detects a "Disk Read Error" from drive A:. I disconnected my floppy (which is drive A yet I still get this error. Is it because my PSU is 300w yet it requires 400w? I will buy a new PSU but I don't want to buy it in vain.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. :4-dontkno

EDIT: I forgot to add, it runs CS:Source at roughly 60fps, 1600x1200, with Vsync. It mainly happens when I'm playing after 5mins, then the prob will happen, and it'll let me play on the second go. I have updated my video drivers, and that didn't help.

the problem is most likely due to power,or should i say lack there of.i would definetly get a better power supply to run that beast.be sure to get a good quality power supply,or you might not help yourself any.
