whether that's the problem or not, you should think about replacing it with a good name-brand PSU
 
My only advice to you is to strip the computer completely bare, with only a mobo, ram, and video card in it, and then start switching in components.

Since you're obviously typing from a computer now, switch components from your working computer with the suspect components to find out which 1 (hopefully only 1) is defective.
 
yes ive did all that but i havent did the MB or CPU since i dont have anything else to test them with...he useing the AMD and im on a P4..is there anytype of LED wires that would do this.
