Could be the PRAM battery getting dead because the main battery is almost dead. Could also be the PMU (power board). Maybe a loose connection with a RAM chip or the processor daughterboard.

To destroy utterly. Like frag, but much more violent and final. "There's no trace left. You definitely gibbed that bug". 2. n. Remnants after total obliteration. Originated first by id software in the game Quake. It's short for giblets (thus pronounced "jib"), and referred to the bloody remains of slain opponents.
