Dear Prodromos,
Have you tried to re-seat the disc controller card and
re-connecting the
disc cables. In an older machine (HP Vectra PentiumPro) I
had also
success with a similar issue by re-seating the CPU(s) and
memory cards
and removing one of the CPUs (less power consumption). I
suspect that
both - oxidation/dust and aging of the powersupplies
(voltage drift and
increased ripple with age) lead to marginal performance and
can lead to
failure.
Best wishes,
Wolfram
