Many years ago, when the Mega ST4 was my primary computer, I had power 
supply problems.

A close examination of solder joints in the power supply revealed a 
number of joints literally  had developed cracks in the solder.  Removed 
the old solder, resoldered, and never had another problem.

Might be something to look into.
