Uh-oh. I've had something like this happen to me twice. The first time it was some kind of worm/trojan. I had to reformat. Low-level format. That
sucked.
The second time it was a faulty power supply unit. Replacement set me back $30. Of course I could've gotten a cheaper PSU, but the cheap ones carry a
risk of messing up the other components because of unstable power, spikes, surges and what-nots.
Let's hope your problem is the second one -- much easier to fix.
