yes and no, I have recently re installed visa, and now have a video issue that is causing the screen to go pixelated and then crash.
start up time delay was occurring before and after the reinstall
system seem to run fine besides that.....
doesn't seem to matter how the shutdown occurs, system will not restart for a period of time.

I would be almost certain that this a power supply issue. I don't know how much you know about computer components and installing them but trying a different power supply (PSU) would be a good thing to try. Try to find one from another machine or friend before trying to buy one. Want to make sure that this is the problem before money is spent (or if you don't mind waiting for a return). Like I said, I would put my money on faulty PSU.
