Well, that was rather rambling, but to me is sounds like there is a
fault in your motherboard. My guess is the heat from your hairdryer
(how did you figure that out anyway?!) either dries out some bit that
overly sensitive to moisture, or causes thermal expansion of some part
that does not make enough contact otherwise... although in the second
case,  it should be more about ambient temperature, not about if there
was a rain storm.

Two years old, huh? So the warranty is.probably well over. I would say
just get a new Mobo.
