Start with the IDE cable. A bad IDE can do the same thing.
Bad power supply can cause all of the about issues as well.
And of course the already mentioned mainboard.
A failing harddisk can do that same thing.
BUT, chances are you have the first 2 items already at hand and can test without spending cash, or RMAing parts
If you dont have a PS, SHAME ON YOU, anyone that works on their own PC should have a spare PS laying around as it is the single most common failing component in all of computing.
