BSOD in multiplayer games

The Problem:
whenever i play multiplayer.... i BSOD after 5mins or so...
games it has happened in
WolfET
CoD
BF1942
BF2

all only in multiplayer... single is fine...

in an attempt to fix this, i have tried
using just one stick of RAM
changing graphics cards (from ATI radeon 9250, to nvidia 6600GT)
updating all drivers
reinstalling windows
screaming, crying, and begging.

none of this has worked....
i really dont know what to do

i dont know what infomation you want.... but here is basicly everything i could think of that you would want from sandra.

please help!

Your power supply is struggling to power you computer, it was poorly designed (generic cheapo brand), or it's about to kick the bucket.

I think those voltage readings have to be incorrect. Your computer would have had issues before.

What games DO work?

Even the best manufacturers can let a bad part slip through quality control. Regardless of what brand your PSU is, one thing that is clear is those voltages spell TROUBLE. I would try another monitoring program to verify that those are really your voltages, something like Motherboard Monitor, or you can go into the BIOS on some motherboards and check there as well. If the +5 really is that low, then you need to RMA that PSU.
