Here's my problem: For the last 7 months or so, I've been playing alot of 3d games on my computer. During the games, every now and then, I would get a blue screen error referring to my graphics driver. I troubleshooted this over and over, following tips such as updating drivers, rolling back drivers... etc..etc. Nothing fixed it. I finally decided this was just something I was going to have to live with until I got a new computer. Now, about 5 days ago, out of nowhere, my computer would just reboot. Pretty much randomly, whether I was on it browsing the web, or not even near it. At first, I thought I had a virus, so I scanned using 3 different programs with updated definitions and came up with nothing. Then, I used 2 programs to clean out the spyware from my system. Still random reboots. These started out not being extremely frequent. Once every few hours, give or take. I kept searching google for a fix, and tried a few other things.Then, it started occurring every 10 minutes, sometimes less. I ended up cleaning the entire inside of my computer very carefully, and removing a TON of dust. Upon restart, everything looked fine, and it stayed on without reboot for about 20 minutes. Decided I would just do normal stuff on it to test and see if it would reboot. I played a 3d game for 7 hours and NO REBOOTS! I was never able to play a 3d game for that long without a crash, so I thought for sure I had fixed my problem. Yesterday, it started rebooting again. Now, it's severe. It's rebooting before I even get windows loaded up half of the time, and it won't boot into safe mode. If I power it off, and leave it off for about 5 minutes, then try again, it goes into windows, but only from anywhere from 1-10 minutes. I'm so frustrated! I have Asus Probe recording temps, fan speeds, and voltage, and I noticed it seems like right before my comp reboots, the fans spike. The temps and voltage look normal though (this is from my point of view, which might not be normal to other people) So I'm thinking it's my PSU? I have my case open with a indoor fan blowing on it, so it runs pretty cool. I just need some suggestions. I don't have a whole lot of money to spend, so I can't get much more than a new PSU right now. Also, I don't have spare parts I can swap out either. PLEASE, if someone can help, I would really appreciate it.

If you need to know anything else, I'll do my best to supply the info. Thank you in advance.

Random reboots can be caused by low capacity power supply. For heavy gaming use, 350W is probably not enough. go to hardwaresecrets.com and access article http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/38! Read on and see if you have any of the problems listed in this article and under "Cooling".
