Hi, I recently posted here asking why my processor has been over heating causing crashes freezes etc. The person who spoke with me was very helpful and walked me through several diagnostics including reinstalling windows. Having gone through this I am now under the assumption that it isn't any thing software related. So I am now wondering what piece of hardware is malfunctioning. I don't think it has any thing to do with my RAM seeing as I have never touched it. I don't think it is my HD for the same reason. So that leaves me with the gpu,heat sink,psu,cpu, and mother board. Can any one tell me the chances for each of these things being the culprit?Where should I start? My instinct tells me it's the psu because my pc is about 5 years old now. My specs are:
AMD 4000+ processor
460w psu
ati 9550s gpu
abit av8 mother board
2 gigs of ram
windows xp 64bit
