Pc crashes

[Epiceleon]

I have two different types of crashes on this pc.

One is that the monitor just freezes but the sound still plays. The other is when my monitor loses its input and goes black, and my peripherals also turn off, but the pc stays on. Both require hard restarts. What could be the problem?

I'm also currently evaluating the first problem on my Ubuntu PC. For me, it seems to be my power supply being very underpowered. What is your power supply? It is definitely a freeze, but I wouldn't call it a "crash" since if the audio is still playing the kernel is still executing code. (Somewhat at least.. )

Hm, what is the GPU? You probably have enough power going to the Graphics card. Also how old is the power supply?
