In the same room as my reprap, controlled by a sanguinololu 1.2 i believe I have a florescent ring light that seems to reset the board if i am printing and then turn the light off.
Has anyone experienced such a thing?
What can I do (besides not using the light) to stop the reset from happening?

the microprocessor resetting sounds like a power surge or voltage drop tripping built in surge protection on the board. An easy fix/test would be to make sure that the light and printer are plugged into outlets hooked up to separate breakers and making sure that the printer is plugged into a surge protector first.
