From the beggining this didn't sound like a PSU problem.
One question, how confident are you that your memory (768 MB RAM) is
100% compatible with your motherboard?

Goran, hindsight is 20:20 vision.

It didn't seem like a memory problem because the OP had no problems
'till he installed his new graphics card.

Also the OP had tried different drivers for his card.

After that, we have to start thinking laterally. I queried the PSU
because the OP has quite a meaty system, particularly with the
addition of the new gfx card.

DaveL suggested a closer look at the Soundblaster card (which I think
may well turn out to have been the problem).

By all means make suggestions, but to come along after the event and
say you knew from the beginning that this wasn't a PSU problem is,
frankly, a bit lame.

Excellent! Well done.

When you try the Soundblaster, try to put it in the slot furthest from
the AGP slot.

I've been out for while and I've just come home, guess what . Yes The
Problem. I found computer hanged with black screen and I had restart
comp manually, then again screen came up and hanged. I'm really fed
up, I have none idea what the problem is. I was more happy before
without this Card. Any idea?

I've just noticed this, while I'm running aida 32 or Asus probe it
tells me that me AGP port is empty. I don't understand this. System
can see card but can't see that the port is in use. Strange?
