I found a battery lying around and replaced it with that, and I also removed the new stick of RAM I bought not too long ago (I spotted a thread that suggested that fix the issue temporarily).
Apart from going back to good ol' 2001 and halving my RAM, I haven't done much in my favor, the issue still occurs. I'm going to put my old battery and RAM back in for now, I'll try out a new battery another day.
Thanks for all the help anyway, is there anything else I can try in the meantime?
