Pc locks up power releated

[Daston]

Hi guys

My other half's pc is locking up when she plays Everquest 2 sometimes it is after an hour others after 10min, I am thinking it may be due to a lack of power but as I have never seen this myself I am unsure of what the effects are. Here spec is;

Gigabyte K8 Triton SLI board
AMD X2 4800+
1gb Coirsar Ram
2x 7800GT's

All of this is running on only 400W PSU so I guys its trying to do too much, would removing one gfx card make a lot of difference?

Just about ALL the lock up issue's I've had are due to a weak power supply. Maybe try blowing it out with a can of air but I'd be willing to bet it's not enough to handle both those video cards.

We sure see a lot of lock-up problems-that are probably because of a too weak power supply lately. You da man for posting what your PSU is right out front, Daston!
