If you have loose sockets, you MUST resolder them; nothing else will really
help. If you can't do this, you have to find somebody with the equipment and
the knowledge to do it...

Btw, this was my exact problem back then. A bad soldered pin in one of the
ZIP sockets... my A3000 was fine as long as I only had DIP chips for FASTMEM.
