I had similar problems long ago with an Alegra board for my 1000, as well
as recently with a Hurricane '020 board. This type of GURU can usually
tracked down to a bad ram chip or two. The Alegra problem was due to DRAMS
that weren't fast enough for it's critical timing-related circuitry. Hand
picking the DRAMS solved the problem. The Hurricane problem was due to
either some sort of intermittant connection on the 32-bit RAM board, or
static build up somewhere in the system. After I removed the RAM board,
cleaned it off, and re-installed it everything has been just fine since.
You might check all your connectors and wiggle them around to make sure a
good connection is being made. Do the same for all your socketed (if any)
ram chips.
