The old Cyrix 166+. Having problems I was changing out cards. While it was booting up I decided to throw in one of the card brackets placeholders (whatever there called). Needless to say my butterfingers fumbled it and it landed across my keyboard fuse. I had to replace the fuse, and the system never did work right. Although, that was the days of Win95, me not updating drivers, the Cyrix 166+, and my last years of physically abusing computers.
