Hard drive knackered? (Again) Stop Error 000000x7b

I have discovered something...

I have progressed to adding the second HDD and let it running for an hour.
No problems.
Next I decided to add the graphics card. Changed bios from onboard graphics
to card and windows crashed and switched off when it got to the "Starting
windows" screen. Um.

Changed back to onboard Graphics and the same thing happened, until I
removed the graphics card from the MB then windows booted ok and is running
now.
It was strange though as it did start a couple of times with the graphics
card but when I opened the CD Drive tray the systwm turnd off. Could it
indeed be my new power supply??? Corsair TX 750W I hope not, although it is
still in warranty.

Just checking the voltages in PC HEalth Status and all are fluctuating by
..01 - .09 and there is no -5v reading. Is this normal?

I will add my firewire card next and see what happens.
 
Since the Graphics card has been out...

It's been running fully updated, two HDDs and External DVDRW, also the
firewire card installed. Has been running like that since this morning coming
up for 12 hours now and no problems. Not sure if I should muck around just
yet. Will probably check the CPU/HSF when I get around to putting it all back
in the case.
Think I'll leave it running for a few more days first.

Then may try putting in the Graphics card again and see what happens.
