What I mean is pull your graphics card out and the ocz psu and put the 300watt psu back in and run the integrated graphics just to see if your pc works properly. If it does then you know it's probably the psu.
As far as not having to buy a new psu, only thing that comes to mind is setting your pc to hibernate or suspend.

THIS PROCEDURE CAN ONLY EVER LEAD TO FAR MORE PROBLEMS
Presuming that you do mean - reconnecting - with a live power supply.I can fix the issue by taking off the side of the case and unplugging the mobo for about 30 seconds, turning the PSU off and on, and then plugging it back in.
My feeling is
1. Has the BIOS been set to disable onboard graphics.
2. See the link below for info re the correct install procedure and ensure you have the latest driver for your operating system. You will see that a BIOS update is suggested if the system BIOS date is before the introduction of the card. - always a RISK. - be careful.

Certainly the advice given you gorham, is the best starting point I think - the only thing I would add IS LEAVE the PSU in and go back to the integrated graphics. If the same still occurs you know then that it is the PSU -with more or less certainty.

Good point on this. This makes more sense that way your isolating the exact possible problem.Certainly the advice given you gorham, is the best starting point I think - the only thing I would add IS LEAVE the PSU in and go back to the integrated graphics.
