I had a similar problem with my Centaur. No MPU, lots of lamps out on both my lamp boards.
You can't really go wrong with the Alltek boards as a whole - it'll make troubleshooting a little easier, and there's more protection built into those boards in case something decides to go poof.
Downside, of course, is the price.. but how badly do you want your Paragon to just work?
