CPU wil not turn on.

Hello,

My computer has a problem. I think it may be the power supply. Anyway, when i turn the computer on, it starts up, but right before it gets to the windows splash screen, it turns off. Before this happened, I would get the Blue Screen randomly. Mainly if watching videos on youtube for example.

After trying to turn on the cpu a few times, it will not turn on at all, untill sometime later, with above results. I have had this cpu for almost 5 years, with various upgrades, but the power supply unit is the same. Computer would stay on for days at a time, if not months. In sleep mode of course.

Any Ideas?

3800 AM2
9800 GTX
2048 memory
500 watt power supply
