If you're running Vista, it's the Search Indexer screwing up. Turn off indexing in the control panel.

If not, then it could be a number of things. By the sound of things (i.e. CMOS reset, DVD-R strangeness) it could be the motherboard. A problem with the motherboard can translate in slow or otherwise unstable performance. Does it load games, video files faster?

It could also be a windows problem. If you have a system restore point from before the crash, restore from it and see if the issue is still there.

Have you tried to boot into Windows with the "Last Known Good Configuration?"
