Ah.  Okay.  Just a little while ago I tried getting some different
behavior out of the system by pulling the SIMMs completely, and then
attempting to shuffle them a bit.  Unfortunately I didn't have any luck
with that.  As for the power supply going, that would make me sad.
At least I can test that pretty easily.  I'll try swapping in known
good supply and see what happens.
