Hello Guy, I'm not sure weather you should try this or not, but sometimes the processor might need more power than the default supplied. You either need to get a better power supply or increase the CPU core voltage. I never tried increasing the voltage to my CPU, but have tried decreasing it and worked fine under heavy use. Whats the specifications for your power supply? Is it a 250, 300, 400 power supply? Who is the manufacturer? Is it approved by AMD? What's the current ratings for 3.3, +12, +5 volt outputs? Remember that increasing the core voltage to you CPU would increase the produced heat. Though, I don't think its the temperature that is causing your problem. Try e-mailing AMD and asking them if increasing the voltage to you cpu wouldn't in any way void your warranty since you would be running you CPU out of spec and that is not recommended. I read in a thread that some guy was running an AMD 1.2GHz on a 250watt power supply, and his computer would crash under heavy use. That was until he got a 350watt PSU and his problems were solved.
