its just some 330W PS i got with this computer about 2-3 years ago now

i unplugged the new HD, as well as the DVD drive as to take more strain off the PS but it just did the same thing and reset

k, now i pulled off the heatsink fan completely, the old thermal compound [im asuming thats what it is] is on the fan/CPU cover, pics:

anything look wrong with that?
