Frank,
Get a can of cold shot or something similar. This is a
can of freon that will chill anything that is sprayed
with it. While the newt is operating, spray different
parts of the MB, the theory being that the sudden cold
will open up any "faults" in either a solder trace, or
a hairline crack on a trace. Of course, sudden cold
shrinks things, causing a temporary fault to suddenly
fail.
You'ld be suprised how fast you'll find the problem
with those 130's
