Let me get this straight, you took a motherboard that was causing your garage door not to open and put it in a cab in your garage?

You GOTTA be working for NASA!

Hahahahaha...I don't use my garage door opener and wasn't aware of how far reaching the problem was.   But yes...I am a genius!

CheffoJeffo:

SOOPER GENIUS!

fjl:

Enclose the mobo in aluminum foil.

Tailgunner:

I'd tend to think the power supply was a more likely culprit, but anything is possible.

One of my dedicated cabs has a foil covered cardboard box that the the PCB is mounted inside of.

Sounds like a shlemiel field to me. I can't wait to hear how this one turns out.
