WIFI Connected No Internet

Hi all,

Wondering if anyone can offer any sort of advice.

One of our PCs is struggling with connecting to the Internet. It's connecting to the network but the internet keeps dropping out (Windows shows "No Internet" in the tray).

It has been plugged in via Ethernet since we bought it late last year but we've made a few changes in our house and now we're using WIFI. There are multiple other devices in the house using WIFI just fine, including the MacBook Pro I am typing this on literally 1m away from the PC's WIFI antennas. I have a PS3 under my bed in a small cupboard that connects to the internet just fine so I'm pretty confident there is nothing wrong with the WIFI.

I've done all the usual physical checks. Antennas are connected securely etc. What could be the problem?

Midway through typing this the PC has automatically reconnected and is now working but it'll drop out again soon...

I have attached the PC's specs below for reference.

Thanks in advance.
