Default More symptoms looking for a solution - help

I have a windows XP machine, started not booting but instead giving an
error - primary hard drive failed. So I swapped the hard drive with a
spare, and now it boots, but seems to every so often turn off (it's
not the sasser virus). The other strange thing is that the CD drive,
which worked before, now works sometimes, and not other times (won't
show up in the file explorer list or other lists of hardware or
drives), and even more ominous, the power lights on the front don't
turn on at all. I fear this is a motherboard issue, but I'm hoping
not.
