      I think I figured this out.
      Aloha uses a ctlsvr (control service) to run the front of house.
      it was set to log on as /.*user* and not local system, which would cause the Dcom error I was seeing above.. Right?

      I ran a refresh this morning after changing to local system and no reboot. no errors in the events log.

            Aloha Manager, the program that preforms the refresh

              Customer emailed my boss and told him we aren't helping them nor are we resolving his issues.

                I honestly don't even know where to look. I've uninstalled everything that wasn't needed to run.

                  The answer was given above and rejected. Wipe the system.

                        Ask him how much it costs to lose the customer.

                            No, the customer wants an answer right now. Very different things.

                              I feel like starting a POS support company would be really easy.

                                      Could be hardware or software. Just replace the PC and install everything from scratch.

                                      Or spend many hours on it and then when you give up, reinstall everything and after that didn't work, replace the PC and install everything from scratch.

                                            Yup. You work for the boss, not the customer.
