Hmm, sounds to me like you have some hardware problems. I presume you'd
notice if there were any blatant physical problems with the motherboard
- I looked at one of my old ones a few weeks ago that had been stashed
in the closet for several years and some capacitors on a video card had
leaked their contents into the AGP slot. Kind of explained why the AGP
slot didn't work anymore!

If you boot a live Linux CD like Sidux, does it still have the problems?
