A good tool that we use is called PC Sentry Plus (http://www.trinitech.biz). It cost about $300 I think but it is great for diagnosing computers that have an error during the startup BIOS process. The card plugs into a PCI or ISA slot and displays a HEX code of what the BIOS is doing in real time and when it hangs you can see what the HEX code is and look it up in the book that comes with it and see what is causing the problem. Saves a lot of time in swapping out cables and hardware when trying to find the culprit. They also sell a boot disk with some memory and hard drive testing utilities but I don't know how good they are.
