As others said don't do anything on a live circuit, it can KILL you, unless you know what you are doing

Dollars to donuts a bad connection on one leg of the feed line, or a bad main breaker, if it was the neutral it would effect all circuits (except 220v). It could be at the meter, main disconnect or at the main breaker in the panel.

One sure way to tell is if the effected circuits are served by every OTHER breaker.

One word of caution, don't just check the tightness, as the screws can seize and appear tight, LOOSEN first, then re-tighten to be sure.
