just try with another psu or look your psus channels with multimeter if 5v is really 3.18 then thats your answer to unstableness :)

The 5v and 12v rails are both to low imho.

Use a multimeter to make sure that is a correct reading.

What kind of psu is it?

Dont trust bios readings. Check it with a multimeter at the molex.

most def.

my bios readings are a far cry from from real.

i have 3@ 3.49 real, bios says 3.30-3.31
5v moves in there alot too and 12v is way low.. all are over their specified voltage really.
