okay so my PC was like 4-5 years from now until it restarting it self when i play games even such a low end games like "Guts and Glory" you know this game wasn't that heavy , so i brought new PSU (Corsair VS 650w) replaced with older (Cougar VTX 700) believing might fix the issue but after installing the new PSU boot the PC everything is light up the fans are spinning but i notice the code is showing "00" and i get nothing on display , so i tried other option like changing the RAM i still got the same , now the Weird thing is when i return the old PSU(Cougar VTX 700w) and boot the PC and voila! everything is runs fine again but i can't play any of my games i cant even run the "RATE THIS COMPUTER" cause my PC restart its self even without using GPU and i use ONBOARD HDMI display instead , now i brought another PSU with same brand (COUGAR-GX 1050w) and guest what nothing happens im i get the "00" code so this means my PC only runs with first PSU(Cougar VTX 700) so does thing mean anything to you guys?

some other though i tried my original RAM to other computer they run fine , the (Corsair VS 650w) is working ok (Cougar GX 1050w) is super fine..

Asus boards usually die after 4-5 years of heavy use. 00 is a CPU initiation error, but I'm willing to bet my left nut that if you put the CPU in different board it'll work just fine. So grab a new board.
