If the system was working stably initially then it sounds like a hardware failure. The motherboard is pretty old so it could be failing. It's unlikely but still possible that a PSU can fail after only 2-3 years. Same thing with a GPU. I'd check HD health using the portable zip edition of CDI: http://crystalmark.info/download/index-e.html Check RAM health by running this overnight some time: http://www.memtest.org/ If both of those are okay I'd try a new PSU/GPU. Maybe someone has GPU bios advice but I've never done that.
