When this happened to me, it turned out to be the touch-sensitive power button at fault. Taking it apart and cleaning both the outer case and the power button board, gasket, etc. did the trick, but some people have ended up having to replace the power button gasket. It could also be an indicator of a failing DC-DC board. http://support.apple.com/kb/TA27236 -- Donald Burr of Borg | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve! http://DonaldBurr.com/ | http://www.freebsd.org/ twitter.com/dburr \----------------------------- -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
