I can use my computer for internet, some winamp, and instant messaging.
When I try and render video, motion graphics/editing, play games, or do anything "heavy" my screen freezes after a while, requiring a hard restart. Sometimes it's even come up GARBLED; the colors reverse themselves with noise and artifacts and shit. I've replaced my power supply 2 times in the last 7 months so I'm ruling out PSU problems. My vid card (AGP) is fairly new...the mobo and CPU are the oldest thing on the darn box.
I'm really tired of throwing money at this thing. Any ideas what's wrong? If not, some cheap CPU/mobo combo that's better than a 2800+AMD64 that won't break my bank?
If anyone is willing to work with me a little on this, please drop me an IM.
