Intermittant lag spike and boot of all systems...

I've purchased a dell (first and last ever) with vista basic. Aside from the typical can never connect to the internet as thought i dont even have a connection--I'm having a distubing problem where my system will start activing all features like spinning the disk DVD/CD drive when not in use and in general causing a choking amount of lag. It lasts for 10-30 seconds and slows all processes even web browsing to a crawl. Then when it is complete I hear 2-3 "mystery" clicks and often what i am doing at the moment is minamized and im sent to desktop as though i alt tabbed or clicked it...ANY information would be appreciated, no one seems to know what this problem is much less even heard of it. Also it happens nearly each sitting and can happen back to back within minutes of each instance, but normally once a night.

*new information states its possibly an issue with the performance and relyablity checkpoints, ive been unable to "turn off" these system check points
