Desktops - December 2006

Periodically the bios settings will change causing my computer not to boot into windows. I have to reset the settings to get it to boot correctly. I think it may be my psu (700W) and my mobo calls for a minimum of 750W for the setup I'm running. Could that be the problem? If needed my specs are:
Mobo: EVGA 680i
GPU: nvidia geforce 8800gts
Cpu: core 2 duo e6700
PSU: 700W http://tinyurl.com/glnun
