I think I'm going to try swapping a few things, and if none of that works, I will strip the case and redo all of it 1 piece at a time. There has to be a component somewhere that is the problem. If I have everything out - i.e. just the power supply, motherboard, video card, 1 DIMM, and the SCSI card in and it still occurs, then I'll think it's the motherboard.
