Also may be worth doing a PRAM reset and SMC reset
PRAM - <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379>
SMC - <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964>
Resetting the SMC for Mac Pro, Intel-based iMac, Intel-based Mac mini, or
Intel-based Xserve
• Shut down the computer.
• Unplug the computer's power cord.
• Wait fifteen seconds.
• Attach the computer's power cord.
• Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the
computer.
