now that u have upgraded the processor.....that power supply may not be handling that load...may need to get a more powerful power supply, or the pow. sup. may just be on its way out. see what the new amd u got recommends for a power supply.

i think he means purging the power is disconnecting the pow cable from the comp and pressing the on button a couple times or holding it down to get rid of any electrical buildup inside the computer.
