Get a new hard drive. Are you runniing windows 98? ME?? NT?? 2000?? XP?? sounds like 98 to me. I had that problem too and went to windows ME and didnt have anymore trouble. Could be ram. Borrow a stick of someone elses and put it in your comp and see if the problem continues. Other than a new OS and hard drive thats all I can think of. SiSoft Sandra is a program you can download from tucows and its got alot of diagnostic stuff on it. It should tell you if youve got hard drive problems.

When was the last time you defragged it? clean disk??
