So list them voltages nutterz. Oh and tell us what you did to break it so we can tell you to un-do it, j/k.

So this is out of the blue issues? How is you're bios acting, any squirly action? Anything we need to know about behavior prior to the start of issues?

Ok
The eldergeek is here and DO what I tell you to do ,
ALL of it.

Go to the device manager and uninstall all items giving you trouble.
if you do not have a driver un-installer go to piriform and get the lite version of CCleaner , English no Yahoo tool bar.

And keep that on your machine all the time.

Once that is installed re-boot and run the application by going to tools and find the drivers to uninstall.
Then reboot

If you do not already have your drivers copied from the support disk to a folder on your HDD,
Then do so before you start the process I gave you to do.

Then after removing all the drivers and uninstalling all the devices,
That's when you re-boot and get the devices recognized in the device manager by clicking the top of the list and telling the system to search for new hardware.
Sit and wait while it searches and don't get anxious about the time it may take.
If you interrupt the process you will have to start over.
Piriform - Products

look down under other builds get the lite version only.

Thanks a lot for the info guys.

So far what I did is un install my soundcard and all Creative related software including drivers.

So far I have ruled out RAM/CPU. Memtest runs succesfully and I just passed 100 passes of Intel Burn Test. I just got me a multimeter so next up is to see what's up with the PSU. If that shows fine too I'll put the GX2 back in there and test that.

A corrupted graphics driver will screw-up your life.
Especially WHQL drivers.
You have to un-install them and do it over.

I have done that a few times and even with some older ones etc. That didn't help.
