One of my older PCs was like that.

In my case, it was an overheating hard drive. Extra fans (plural!) helped. Just be mindful of airflow; you will want all intakes on the front and all exhausts on the back.

Is it enough to love
Is it enough to breathe
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed

Is it enough to die
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be Anything but Ordinary
Please
