Too much draw from the power supply, if you have an original power
supply, it is insufficient and the PS overheats and heats up the rest
of the system.
I had the same issue when I have just TWGS, RF SCSI and a sound card,
it will start locking up.
Either you get a heavy duty power supply (likes of Pegasus,
InnerDrive, Vulcan), or the Buggie Power for a replacement.
But recently, I came across an article on changing the size of the
cable inside the original power supply, to push out more juice ... and
jumping the power cables directly to the slots (for the serious
hardware hacker).
