One thing you might look at is some stock batteries leak. If acid leaks, just beneath it is your computer, with a ton of wiring going into it. A lot of forum members have had weird and bad things happen with the wiring harnesses being eaten up.

This really does sound like a low voltage problem. Check the voltage of the battery BEFORE you start the car. Anything less than 12.5 volts is a problem.
