I keep backup Hard Drives (of windows) so I can be back up in a couple of minutes if it is not a hardware problem, but then I have multiple systems so it's quick to boot something else too.

Cloning VirtualBox VMs is a swift way to to bypass software problems, but now my base system is Linux Mint and I don't have a quick way to fix it so I'll checkout your suggestions.
