I have a win98 1.4g AMD T-bird, Inno3d Ti4200 (not oc'd), 40mb ibm 7200rpm drive, piece of crap ecs k7vta3 v1 mobo, cd-rom, floppy. The system has never been stable at fsb 133, only at 100. I have swapped out everything and see a difference with different power supplies, but its never totally stable. I have concluded that a better psu would get me stable. The three 300w psu's I've swapped in/out are Allied and Powerup. I am asking for advice as to the cheapest psu solution that will work. System lock ups are unpredictable and always result in a screen freeze requiring power off/on. I realize an antec or enermax 300w will likely solve my problem, but maybe a cheap 400w or 500w from someone else would to the job as well. ejsmith2 has been so good as to advise how to tweak an existing supply, but I am not confident of going down that path yet. Thanks.
