(a)The easy 1 on 1 method.
Replace each and every hardware item one at a time for a period, say 24
hours (a week sounds better in your case since it only happens once a
day), until you replace the item that is broke = your system no longer
has that fault.
Have you done the basic cable/chip wiggle test? (remove+replace),3, *
every cable and chip[1].
Checked error/message logs?. A faulty CD drive/HD on the way out can do
this (timeout messages)
