"Any Help Would Great tkx"
Ok here is the problem: When I 1st turn on my computer in the morning the lights will flicker but it won't load up, what I have to do is turn off the computer from the switch on the back of the computer and then turn it back on and hit the start button and it will load just fine. This only happens when I 1st turn on Computer. If I have to restart computer it will load just fine only time it happens is 1st time in the morning. Any helpful hints or suggestions would greatly be appreciated. Its been doing this for almost 2 months now long before I started installing new stuff..... Just one morning it started doing it was thinking maybe my power supply might be going out but that's just it I don't know what's wrong...Not a computer wiz here...lol
tkx. Peace Rowddy

The way you describe it tells me that the problem lies with your electrical system. It may be that the outlet you have your stuff plugged in is overloaded. You may want to try relocating some of your equipment to another outlet w/c is completely separate wiring from the one you are using.

Check your fuse box and see what the rating is for that part of your home you currently are using - try unplugging other appliances or equipment connected to the same wiring system. I would suspect that its 15A or less - or the electrical wire is not adequate enough to accomodate all that juice being used.

Good luck!
