I know how it is. I thought about jumping in my CPU fan to kill myself on 1 
comp job that, Murphies law played so hard against me.
It turned out to be 1 bad stick of ram, 1 bad hard drive (Raid 0) and a tiny 
little, what looked like an electrical arc on the back side of the 
motherboard. The thing that amazes me is that the board worked 3/4's of the 
time. 
I finally decided; after fighting for a long time with soft/hard swaps, to 
tear it completely apart and behold; A MESS!
