Question Rogue pc network connection

I have a problem with one pc i connect to my home network. When it is not connected the ping on the network is about 25-60 but when i connect this certain pc the ping goes over 2,000. Unplug it and it goes back to normal. Even when i plug a usb wifi adapter into the same computer it takes the ping sky high again.
I plugged a laptop into this cable (just in case it was that) and the network works fine still. I have done virus scans, malware etc on this pc and done a network reset, but still this problem occurs. Could the old pc network card (which i think is integrated be the problem , but why would this effect the usb connector ?)
Any help would be very much appreciated, as i have 2 teenage sons and they are driving me insane......lol

I have a main router with 3 out lan cable;
Cable one goes to a 4 switch for 2 office pc's,(and an xbox one and pc in sons bedroom)
Cable two goes to rougue pc
Cable 3 goes to an 8 switch in lounge for another xbox one, tv, blu ray, wifi extender.
