Wow! That is a great story! I am not being a wise ass, that truly is a cool story.
You gotta tell me, at what point in the troubleshooting process did you come about the tipping sideways thing?
I had a washing machine that I had to stick a book of matches behind the timer to make it work.
Seriously though. I am sure someone here can help you out. I think I see too many variables here. Different boards, power supplys, memory, angle of the desk here or there.
Your chip is not going to "blow up" her board. But, you bought a new board and chip, is everything cool for you now?
Tell us more about the old "chip". What board? What OS? Read the memo at the top of the first page about info to be supplied.
Great story though.
