Hi,
I have an old computer that works fine.
However, I had a problem when I tried to play some games so I changed my graphic card to GTX 650Ti.
Now it got worse. Sometimes even when I'm just surfing the web it crashes and it says it was recovered from display error. Sometimes it even freezes the computer so I had to hard reboot.
Also, I still can't play games like GTA IV or stalker.
Actually, it got worse since I changed video card from 8600GT to GTX 650Ti.
Can someone help me out why I'm having these issues and how to solve it?

here's my computer setup
CPU : Intel Core2 Quad Q6700 @ 2.66Ghz
Memory : OCZ SLI-Ready Edition Dual Channel 2048MB PC6400 DDR2 800MHz * 2
Graphic : Geforce GTX 650Ti
Motherboard : XFX nForce 680i LT SLI
Power Supply : Ultra LSP750 750-Watt
OS : Windows 7 32bit
HDD : 2 sata hard drives and 1 IDE hard drive
BIOS : Phoenix AwardBIOS v6.00PG
DX version : 11

thank you.

 
I did a bit of research and it seems that ultra PSU is quite low quality. This isn't the exact psu you have but they are basically the same from what I read, ones modular the other one isn't. Regardless the PSU isn't that good and its age isn't helping. I suggest grabbing a quality PSU from a big box store such as frys or best buy. (so you can easily return it if it doesn't fix the problem)
