Recently rebuilt PC with PhenomII 955, and been having problems when starting up as it can take 3 attemps to log on, as the other times the PC restarts.
First thought it was HDD's playing up so ran diag software on both and passed, also thought it could have been old config being on HDD's so i've reformatted both.
The problem is still there, when it gets to the XP log on screen my raptor cuts out like the power has gone on it, so that's got me thinking it's the PSU.

The PSU i'm running is an OCZ modstream 520W which is 3 years old could that be my problem?

spec is as follows:
Phenom II stock speeds
Gigabyte GA-MA790FXT-UD5P
Corsair XMS3 DHX 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 1600C9DHX
HIS 4850 (512MB)
1 Raptor X
1 WD 500AAKS
1 DVDRW (some generic pulled from a HP)
1 LG GGW-H20L Blu-Ray Rewriter & HD-DVD ROM

or could it be something else i've over looked?

Thanks
Phil
 
everything is at stock.
whole thing resets, raptor cuts out as i can hear the platters slow cuts off, then powers up as normal, but it can take upto 3 attempts to get a sucessful logon.
 
I havn't touched the voltages/frequences on anything so as far as i'm awair they are correct.
have done on one HDD but can't remember what happened so will retry.
