This defies all laws of electronics, but I solved my recent Micronik problems by rotating the internal power connector 360°. It could be a coincidence, but I went from random crashes and power failures every 30 minutes to 24/7 Rock Solid Stability.

Nope, this fits entirely into the "when in doubt, wiggle it about" paragdim for connectors of all kinds...
Probably one slightly ill fitting pin or dodgy bit of soldering is fixed by the change in stress directions etc...

If you still want to test that a1200 mobo, it looks like Nottingham to my place is only about 1:30 to 2:00 by car...
Still, that's according to AutorRoute 2000, so you might want to disregard that entirely :lol:
