Grounding issue from the metal shield, maybe?  I didn't know anyone was still running their system with one of those on, lol.  ;)


It was always a good idea to bend up the RF shielding in the trapdoor area because of this exact issue.

Or insulate it with electrical tape. As I've done.

Yep, done that too... bad design (on the RF shielding) because it comes dangerously close to shorting with something installed in the trapdoor.

First time I ever installed something in a A1200 I was like:

oh, wow, I don't like that...
