it definitely could be a problem with the solder joints on the logic board or other logic board problem (possibly not repairable, i.e. blown chip or cracked traces inside the board). you might try, preferably with the logic board removed, filling the nubus connector holes with everclear, waiting a few minutes, and dumping it out and then letting it dry for at least most of a day. beyond that, 8100 mother boards are frequently available on the swap list, or you could post a wanted ad there (best to post a wanted ad to get a good price). also of course make sure the cards are going all the way in.
