Hi,
One of my friend with the iMac above is having lots of trouble to start his machine first time in the morning. It seems that unplugging from the wall and plugging back, then pushing the start button in the back many times is the only way to go. This is a haphazard process meaning that it can start after a few tries or after many. Once it has start in the morning, restarting for the rest of the day is OK. Only other problem on this iMac was trouble to awake after sleep. My friend disabled the sleep function as short cut solution. Can this startup problem caused by an hair crack somewhere that is wider when cold?
Waiting for any help you can provide,
JC
PS On my suggestion, the iMac has been cleaned up with ONYX, because it was slow has molasse. It is now OK. Also I make him try the Command-Option-P-R incantation to no avail. If you need more info just ask. But pardon my FrenchGlish.
