i got a new CPU fan, this ones a little bigger. Hopefully this will help, if this is not it. Its either Power Supply, Video Card, or motherboard. But I dont think it could be the power supply.

Have you checked your event logs to see what might be causing the problem?

Start -> Run... -> events.msc
