the HD or NIC may be going.
When was the last time you cleaned out the tower and checked to see if

Do NOT install any driver updates offered via Automatic Updates. Suggest
you visit the manufacturer's web site for any driver updates for hardware.

Microsoft Update, or by using Automatic Updates after you repair a
