Sounds like something about your hardware is causing the problem.  Do
a Google.com/linux search for your motherboard, video card, add-on cards
and see if others are having similar problems (or need a firmware update,
etc).

Might also consider double-checking the Power
supply.....I've pulled out more hair thinking things were software issues,
when it was a flaky power-supply.

Just some ideas....
