Starting about a half hour ago, if I move
my laptop while it's running, it powers off, instantly. Black screen,
totally dead. It'll boot back up (sometimes I have to hit the power
button a few times) but everytime it does, the clock's been reset to
mid 1969. I figure something's come loose inside, but what?

I had a WS once that shorted when the touching the right battery in the wrong way. Try and move the battery to the left and leave out the drive for a test.

It happens when there's nothing in either bay, as well as when on battery power. Offlist, Craig W. suggested that it might be the Power Manager card. Does that sound likely to anybody? I've got no clue.
