Even a dirty port or poorly installed jack, or a million other things, can cause problems. Interference on the line (run next to a fluorescent light for example, a nick in the cable,...) or anything that causes retries can eventually overload the network, and therefore overload a port and potentially cause a switch to reset.
It will likely come down to the process of elimination. If possible start with as simple a test scenario as possible (direct wire the 2 PCs together for example) and then add devices/cables/switches 1 by 1 and keep retrying.
