^ It crashed faster than normal.


I posted this same topic to a forum named Tom's Hardware. Here is what people came up with that wasn't mentioned here:

+ Apparently AMD Phenom's have a 300W PSU, and I need a 500+W PSU for gaming.
+ My graphics card is sub-par.
+ I have a strange mix of memory modules.

You didn't list in your post what power supply you had - but yes that is definately too low and would most likely explain the errors you've been getting - i would recommend getting atleast 550w+ if not 650w so you can upgrade the graphics card later - and also get a good quality power supply rather than a cheap one if you can.

If I get a new power supply I probably have a maximum spending price of around 100$, but thanks for all the help trying to figure out the problem.
