Default Re: System Idle Process bad behaviour!

Is there software that can calculate the load on my PSU? I tried a web calculator where you fill in boxes, called eXtreme Power Supply Calculator Lite v2.5. It did say I'd want 458W.
I've burnt that MemTest85 CD, will try it.
I suppose I should buy a new PSU first off. But I'll try all the stress tests I can, first.
