Whenever the computer starts playing any game my PC shuts down. I'll start a game and check the temp thinking that perhaps it's that, but the temps are fine. When I try to turn it back up it won't turn on but when I unplug it and plug back in it boots right up. So I'm assuming something is up with my PSU.

Any ideas?
 
Specs are in my signature

PSU PC Power & Cooling 350w. it's an old PSU taken from a 867 PIII system.

Thanks for your time.

Yes you need more +12V amperage, a PC p&C 470W would be fine,
as would any "known good" PSU with +12V@26A or more. ;)
