metal shield A1200
« on: February 20, 2003, 08:21:24 AM »
Hi all,
How important is the metal shield on top of the A1200 motherboard ? Look like it creates short-circuit. A reset occurs each time I press carefully the metal. I did not find what component is touching the metal. How could I isolate the top shield from the MB ? I guess I should leave it because of the floppy and the HD I plan for the future.

Hi all,
I found out why I have this reset : on the left down side of my A1200 MB there are 2 little cylinders terminated by iron wire. Each time the keyboard is touching them produces a reset so I cut those and everything is fine now.
