Howdy,
I am not so sure that your power supply is too small, but it may not be
working up to snuff. I have a PC Power and Cooling Turbo 350 running 3 UW
SCSI disks, two SCSI CD drives and a SCSI zip. You may want to go to
http://www.pcpowercooling.com and use their power supply size tool. Just
plug in the values for your system and they will recommend the proper size.

Thank you all for the suggestions.

Mine is running Service Pack 1. I think my problem comes from a cheap IDE
66 card I installed recently. After taking it out, I don't have reboot
problem anymore for the last 3 days. It might not be the card itself. With
this card added, maybe my power supply (300W) isn't big enough to provide
all the power needed.

I have a video card, NIC,  firewire, ultra-wide scsi, 3 IDE hard drive (two
5400rpm, one 7200rpm), 1 CD-RW. With this IDE card plugged in, I have
another CD-ROM player connected. Is it too much for 300 power supply?
