TROUBLED

Name: Anonymous 2009-12-19 4:55

My computer is a few months old, and sometimes when I play a game for a few hours it reboots itself (but only certain games). I figured that my PSU (500w) isn't man enough for my graphics card (Radeon 4850), but decided to leave it unless it happens more frequently (happened only 3 times in 6 months so far).
Recently, my computer has been getting warm above the fan which it never had before, so I opened it and vacuumed all the dust which improved things, but it still gets a little warm where it used to be ice cold. On top of this, there's a noise coming from the box most of the time, which sounds like something rattling as it vibrates. Also, the HDD makes a noise like it's working when the computer is idle.
Pls advise.
