Sounds to me like the divers are corrupt. Find the CD that came with your main-board, and re-install your chipsset drivers. Everything works in real-mode right? If not maybe your board is cooked. What chipset are you using?

I had the same thing crop up on my system. It sounds like you may have an IRQ conflict. Pay attention to the startup screen and see if you have a conflict. My graphics card would automap to IRQ 14, even though I told it not to use an IRQ, and then it would cause a conflict. I finally had to just set 14 as an ISA resource, and that fixed it.
