I was wondering what voltges I need to have on the PSU, because some times my comp Reboots by its self or does not boot the first time I press the power button.

My other question is what is the normal temp for A AMD Athlon 64 3000+ and its peek
temp.
Because at idle it stays at 35C with stock H/F and case at 35C, but When I play games like PainKiller and UT2004 it reaches 40C on CPU and 45C on case.

Specs
WinFast K8S760-6LRS
AMD 64 3000+
Kingston 512 MB
80 GIG WDC 7200 rpm 8mb buffer
ATI RADEON 9600 128mb
AOPEN DVD/CD-RW
300 watt PSU

Good luck getting power readings from the processor socket. its just not going to happen. If you are concerned about your power supply, use a voltmeter to monitor your +12 and +5 volt rails, to make sure they stay within half a volt of their expected. Anything much further is outside the atx spec, and may cause reboots.

The easiest though is to replace your power supply with a different one to see if that cures the problem.
