Agreed.
Get some contact cleaner and clean the A1200 first and see if that does the trick.
If you had no problems in the other A1200, then it a good bet you have a little oxidation on the conectors of this MOBO.
Agree, had problems with my Blizzard 1230 MKIV recently when I installed it in another A1200 I have...it didn't boot up so I cleaned thre CPU connector on both the card and motherboard with CRC Electronic Cleaner and PRESTO! it then booted and runs like a swiss clock :-D
