Default Re: New build crashing

Okay, I have a new network card now, and the internet issues are fixed, but not the real issue: random crashes. They're still happening. Is there some way to test the power supply for issues? I'm starting to rethink the power button too. I have an NZXT Tempest mid tower case and occasionally the power button gets jammed in a bit farther than it should be. It's no real problem as I can just pop off the side of the case and push it up from behind, but while it's in the slightly jammed state (keep in mind, I'm talking a few millimeters further in), the crashes become crazily frequent, occuring every few minutes. Could this be indicating a case issue? I know it's already partially broken (for those of you who have a Tempest, the two lights down the sides of the front panel are dead), but I REALLY want to be sure it's causing my problem before I do anything with it. Power supply replacement=20 minute job. Case replacement=major pain in the butt.
