Hardware Problem?

Hello, my problem is whenever i am using a windowed application - game, browser, instant messengers. The window deselects at random, if i am looking at a webpage, the blue highlighted border at top of the browser window becomes greyed out, then reactivates. This is only a minor annoyance when browsing. But when using msn or typing in any window, it will deselect window and interupt my typing, it has happened twice while typing this =(. Also when playing games it will switch me back to desktop, but does not crash the game, but it is still very annoying.
I have tried all different plugs for my mouse and keyboard, usb and ps2.
I have reloaded windows clean.
I can only think that its a mobo or psu problem, i have another psu i will try, but mobo switching is a pain, and kinda costly. Any ideas on what the problem could be? any here experienced similar?
Also my cpu is running a little hot, 60c after few hours, gonna get some more thermal cooling paste and reapply/reseat cpu cooler also.
