      maybe a case of overload? what HW did you recently add to your system?

      give more hardware details about your system

        80 GB must be an old drive.

          System spec is around 2004. Disk 5 years old. Could have failed.

          What is this PSU you swapped in there ? ?
          Wattage and brand ?
          New or used ? ?

          It could be the PSU as well.
          Double check all your connections.
