[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1463975, member: 46727"] I'm beginning to suspect the hard drive along with you. As I stated before, it would be unusual for the drive to cause a shutdown, but I've seen stranger things happen when something goes wrong. Let's check the hard drive: Boot the machine with your install DVD and run Disk Utility from the disk. Do a verify and repair run on the hard drive. Also do something else.... Download the free [URL="http://istat-pro.en.softonic.com/mac"]iStat Pro monitoring[/URL] program and get a readout on the three fans in your iMac and the temps. [/QUOTE]
