With all of the problems you've been describing over the past several days, have you tried booting into the Apple Hardware Test (hold "D" key down with the Install 1 DVD in the drive at Power On).
Run it in extended mode and see if it finds any hardware problems.
Maybe put it into Loop Mode (press Control-L before starting the extended test), and see if it will run overnight.
If it reports failures then you almost certainly have a hardware problem.
