I'm surprised that no one asked you about which motherboard revision you have.
 It is known that Apollo accelerators have timing problems with some Amiga 1200 motherboards and cause frequent crashes. I can't remember which revisions are affected, but if you do a search here, you will find them.

 Yeah, that could be another remote reason. Mine is completely removed.

AFAIK it was only with 040/060 cards that the timing problems showed up.
oh i didn't know that. Do you know, btw, if 040/060 Blizzards are affected or not?

 There is no need to search. Doobrey provided us the relevant link for the fixes. :-)
 I just heard some rumors that Blizzards are not affected by these timing issues and i wanted to verify it. But according to what you say they are false-rumors.
