I am wondering if you have a hardware problem.
What is the make and model of the computer or motherboard?
What drives are connected to what ports?
Assuming motherboard graphics, I would strip the motherboard down to the
motherboard, CPU, and memory for troubleshooting. If you do not have
motherboard graphics, then also leave a graphics card.
Test the power supply with a hardware power supply tester.
Has the computer been unplugged and/or the power supply turned off for
long periods of time? If so, perhaps you should test or replace the
CMOS battery. Symptoms of a weak battery include CMOS checksum errors
and CMOS settings changing or getting lost. Getting locked out of Setup
is another possibility.
Get the service manual and look for a "BIOS Configuration Jumper Block",
or some such. Use that to get into Setup and restore factory settings.
Note the following warning in my "Intel® Desktop Board DQ67SW
Technical Product Specification January 2011":
CAUTION
Do not move the jumper with the power on. Always turn off the power
and unplug the power cord from the computer before changing a jumper
setting. Otherwise, the board could be damaged.
Is the firmware up to date?
Have you tested the CPU and memory with memtest86+? For 24 hours?
