Ok, ive decided to get a new PSU as i really cant think of any other solution and its not a very popular thing that happens so i don't think many people know too much detail about this problem.

Just need some guidance-

Maplin > 1000W iCute Modular ATX Quad VGA Power Supply

Is that a good PSU for what i have inside my PC?

Hey, thanks for replies guys.

Cheers for advice about Jeantech, i hate it when you end up buying stuff from a dodgy brand.

The one you recomended Hengis does look good, it also has 'Worlds first six +12V rails' which cant be too bad. Does this PSU have a current rating of 30A?

Its weird how overlooked PSU's are. I know enough about the other components, but coming to PSU's i really know nothing about them

Hey guys, i don't know if anyone was following, but i found out the problem.

It was as we thought, the PSU. It wasn't broken or anything, just too old to support the card. So i got the new PSU and everything is working fine.

So anyone that has this problem in the future, its most likely your PSU being old or something
