The motherboard siren is sounding, unless I turn off the 5V monitor in
the bios.  Last I looked a few days ago, it was indicating 4.6V.  Under
sustained load (e.g. installing packages!) the PC reboots.  

It is a pretty simple machine: Slot A Athlon 750, 1 HDD, 1 CDRW, GeForce
4 MX. So I figure a good 300W PSU should be able to easily handle that
:)  The Antec 300W is about 4 years old.

Sound like a PSU issue?
