Hi everyone, Ive been having this problem for a bit now and cant seem to figure out whats going on. Sometimes when I watch a netflix movie or tv show the computer just restarts. Doesnt seem to always happen. SOmetimes I can watch 10 episodes and nothing wrong. Other times I cant get through one episode without it happening. Same thing with youtube videos. Odd thing is it also does it after Ive hit back to browse on netflix to when Im done watching even.
So far Ive updated silverlight
updated drivers
updated windows
And nothing so far.
My computer is a HP Pavilion A1240N
specs.

Tested the hdd
tested the memory sticks with memtest86+
It has a 500 watt Ark technology psu in it that i replaced (yeah i know its a cheap one lol)
In the last few months Ive replaced the mother board with the same one that came in the comp from the factory
replaced the hdd with a WD black 500 gb
replaced the 2x512 memory sticks with 3x 1gb sticks (one was fualty so its being RMA'd)
So anyone have any clue on how to fix this? Ive been googling and reading forums so much the last few days I think im going crosseyed lol. Any help would be appreciated!
edit.
Below is a pic of what part of the bracket is broke circled in blue. Wondering if this is causing my heatsink to not have a good connection with the cpu.
