I tried to fire up my P6 yesterday but there seemed to be a
power issue.   I left it plugged in and today I noticed some LEDs
flashing. I tried to restart it and it worked.  Curious.  It's like a
battery needed to be recharged, but I don't know of any battery
except maybe a hwclock battery.

I am thinking Capacitors. You might have a few blown or leaking
somewhere. I would open it when you get the chance, and look for
anything leaking or bulging.

Possibly, but it is working fine now. I did open it up yesterday, but did not check for capacitor issues.

It is a Dell Precision 370.  I bought it in December 2005.
