Took apart comp to sleeve it, and add news fan + CDR drive.
I hook up 2 120mm fans, 2 90mm fans and the CD drive, start computer and it wont start. Take out the 2 120mm fans, it boots but I get blue screen error (cant read because it reboots too fast). So I take out of CDR drive, it boots to windows but then one of the 90mm fans stops and it freezes up on windows and bios. So I unplugged both 90mm fans, working ok so far.
I just want to make sure this is a power supply issue and not a motherboard issue. Before I added all the fans and the CDR Drive I was running 1 120mm fan and a 90mm fan fine...
Anyways here the stats.

ENERMAX EG425P-VE SFMA 2.0 420W Power Supply
VNF4/Ultra Chaintech Motherboard
OCZ 1GB x 2 184 Pin Ram
Maxtor Diamond 10 300GB (slave) Western Digital 74GB Raptor (Master)
Geforce 6800 GT Video Card
TDK DVD/CDR Drive
3500 64 AMD Proccessor
Sony CDR Drive
 
What does the event log say about your blue screens?
 
I dont think it says anything...
I mean I just looked over the errors and I didnt see anything about what happened.

If you really did blue screen, there will be a record in the System event log. When you have time to take a closer look, let us know what you find.
 
The only errors are for Firefox and Ewido suite, the others are just event logs for the windows boot up.
 
It just blue screened agian on reboot, at 9:08am. There is NO log, no error recorded at 9:08, all logs started at 9:12 when I got it working agian.It blue screen right after bios, before windows boot, I was under the impression event viewer only records logs and events after the boot up...
 
What are your Startup and Recovery settings?
 
Thanks, once agian event viewer shows nothing at the times of the blue screens, only errors that show are from my Virsus scanner taking too long to boot up.
And I already new I didnt have auto reboot on, I checked it agian and its off.
Ran Prime95 for 9 hours and 40 minutes to test my PSU, no errors, nothing, clean.
I know my RAM is good because I tested that for 8 hours last month or so.
 
Are you positive you're looking at the right log?
