- I have the same board and went through something like this problem when
- I firt got it. As it happened, my rear panel mounting bracket is a little
- out of line with the card slot, and securing the card put enough torsion on
- the card that some contacts in the slot were intermittent. Reseat your card
- and do not secure it with the screw on the back chassis wall mount, see if
- that helps.
