 Could thoughts all. 

 I would also add a check of the event logs in windows and run a memory
diagnostic.

Power supply problems - as in maybe external causes - a nearby
fridge-freezer
motor/compressor

Could also be failing memory - triggered by power management of some device

First - check the power management - anything set to go to idle?
My first physical 'test' would be a second PC on the same supply socket -
both
failing points to the external source
Then - add in a voltage recorder - looking for momentary drops may effect
one
output of a PSU that is not in the best of condition
Then - maybe replace the PSU
After that - it's going to be memory - maybe pulling individual modules

Tried uninstalling, wiping registry, reinstalling? Could you still keep
your data if you did that? I have no experience from a dba perspective but
this might be a way of determining whether it is something in your registry
versus potentially a hardware or Bios problem.

There appear to be some suggestions and analytics here for similar symptoms.
