    Well let me put some authority into his statement.

    Pull off your CASE.
    Enter the BIOS.
    Wave your hand and fingers over the surface of the mainboard.
    Watch your voltages move wildly.

    Now if they are stable and do not change +- 0.01 then you have a stable
    board. But 95%+ of the people have this problem on the second release of
    the BP6.

    FYI, EMF's change with age, as do the effect Z of the LRC circuits.
