    The PS could be damaged.
    You say you BSOD when on 'high settings' on your video game...perhaps the video card is drawing more power and the PS is failing.
    Check your voltages.
    Run a benchmark program or something to stress the box..monitor your 12V,3.3V, and 5V voltages.
    If any of them drop more than .3 volts you'll have a problem. At .4 below the 12V, consider the PS dead.

    As stated...been thru this alot.
    Random goofiness tends to point me to monitoring the PS. 95% of the time, a PS replacement does the trick.

    Heck..only last week I replaced a 1 year old PS that died due to a power surge(the only box of 7 total that wasnt on some kind of surge protector).

    Good luck!

    Thnax for tips. i have run the 3Dmark 06 ther is no bsod when i run it it do some grafic test and cpu test and it make the test finnish and i get some kind of points around 10k, if its good or bad i dont know.

    To clarify, i got the bsod sometims even if i look a movie one the one screen and surf on the other screen, it culd the the PS when i try my old grapic card nvida 8500gt i got lesser bsod i think 2 or 3 on 3days. maby becous its take less power

    What program to test the PS? or voltage monitor?

    Thanx for advice

    Btw the motherbord i buy what the cheapst one i find. can it just be a crapy card or dosent matter?

    i have check the voltage now and its de same on safe mode and high quality
    +3,3V DC LINE 3,37V
    +5V DC LINE 5,87V
