The Moaning Tech Strikes Again!

Gosh what a long day. Rolled outta bed at 3:45AM due to an inability to return into the land of Nod. Drove 50 miles and reinstalled a machine that was severely infected on a network. It recovered nicely and worked fine. After a period of time re-establishing this refurbished client PC on the network, the server crashed. It crashed 3 more times after some investigation and 3 restarts. Now I have it on the bench and working like mad to find the problem. It's still crashing. It may be time to move their data to another server and let them use it temporarily. This one looks like it's headed back to Dell. Now if I can get it to stabilize long enough to grab data. You know, if I believed in reincarnation I might suspect that I was Hitler in a past life. Well, at least Attila the Hun.
