I think my empeg has problems with soldering of the IDE connector. If I open the empeg, and have the disk & mounting plate taken out (cables still connected), the empeg boots up usually OK. When I place all back into the case and fix all screws again, it sometimes works OK, sometimes not. When opened, and pressing here or there on the motherboard, it works sometimes OK as well.

To me this seems like a problem with soldering of the IDE connector, although visual inspection did not show a clear issue here.

Any suggestions how to get this fixed? I can't solder such things myself...
