This problem is also common with bad or inadequate power supplies. If
you have just installed a new hard drive or something it could be
maxing out the supply, or the supply is bad. Maybe you don’t have
clean power?
Also with power, you may have a short in a cable, this is common if
you have extra lights and fans.
Static can also do this, if you are on carpet use some antistatic
spray.
As mentioned heat can be a culprit too, check your processor
manufacturer for ideal temperature and use the bios screen to check it
or download a trial version of a temp utility.
