Aloha,

Have fun tracking it down. I just had a Desktop box fail (No Nothing) 
here after being off for a month and it was solved by cleaning the video 
card , memory and network contacts. We are in Hawaii where it is cool at 
night and warm in the day and our office is only screens so its open to 
the elements. Sometimes the corrosion gets to the contacts and I have to 
clean the cards and connectors with alcohol and up it comes.
