Hi Jon,
There is currently a warranty extension program for this particular
model of emac here : http://www.apple.com/support/exchange_repair/
emac.html
I guess if your serial number falls in the range specified, that is
most likely your problem.
This happened to my 1.25 ghz emac too, hard freezes, that only a
power down will fix. If it is the same problem. you should be able to
look inyour ram slot and see a couple of capacitors there bulging or
even leaking.
Cheers
James

Our OS 10.3.9/512/1.25GHz home eMac is freezing on a regular basis.
I have used Tech Tools Pro, plus fsck (4 times, and states the
system is normal) but to no avail. It tends to freeze when a window
is moved, or sometimes when Mail is opened. Often dragging an image
to a folder will to it as well. The machine is about 3 years old.
When it freezes the cursor can still move but everything else is
locked. I have looked in Prefs an Library for anything out of the
ordinary, but it all looks okay.
Any thoughts at all on why this may be happening?
Thanks
Jon
