some will advise to feed extra power at the floppy conector.

my extra power feed is done by picking up the 5v rail near the power point socket & soldering a wire to the floppy connect 5v rail on the underside of the A1200 motherboard to avoid to many wires/clutter.

remember clean power & cooling is the key to getting Blizzppc/Bvision to work in a desktop.

you must add extra fans to keep it cool or you may find your Blizzard PPC not working one day. you must also take into account hot summer months.

I wonder if extra fan on PPC chip might do some damage, because of vibrations and that fragile BPGA.
