Hi Chris,

Try adding a powerdrill or skillsaw to the powerstrip and see if it helps
improve the situation.  :)

One more comment My desk light will slightly dim when the heater fires up.

I just began having an interesting problem on a machine that has an AMD300
watt power supply.  It randomly reboots itself.  I believe it has something
to do with the load on the circuit.  I see this problem sometimes when the
central-air heater starts up.  I'll rundown what is on the circuit.


3 Lights
1 21" HPA4033A Monitor
1 19" TV
1 VCR
1 Subwoffer speaker set
1 Celeraon 400 with 250Watt PS
1 Mini computer with 60Wat PS
1 5 Port 10/100 Switch
1 5 Port 10mb hub
1 P75 with 200 Watt PS
1 Telocity DSL adapter
1 Toshiba Laptop
1 Cell phone charger.

As I typed this list out I'm thinking "Damn!"

Chris
