I think you might improve the reliability of your machine by doing the
1 meg upgrade.  All that soldering may improve the connections to your
memory chips (seems to me that is where your problem is) and you can
resolder any additional suspicious looking connections.  Also, while
you have the hood up you can reseat those custom chips that like to pop
out of their sockets during shipment.  I gave this treatment to my
ST and I have not seen a problem since (5 months).

Be sure to take the usual anti-static precautions when messing around
inside.
