[QUOTE="robotboy175, post: 1157702, member: 139424"] Thanks for the repy - I don't think it's the power supply. I use surge protectors. I know that isn't the end all of protection, but it's a good start. Nothing else that has been plugged into the same protector has failed, or even wavered. I have plugged it into one of it's own for now. Never thought about it overheating..i have been on it all day. It doesn't explain the other times, but you could be on to something. Thanks for the links. I hate extended warranties, and never but them, but 2 days ago i bought one for the computer through my credit card company. It was cheaper and longer lasting coverage than offered by apple. The apple guy tried to sell it to me when i went down. It has been in the back of my mind ever since. As it was coming up on a year and it had shut down twice i bit the bullet. I hate the fact that the bar is an hour away, but that is how it goes. It would be after Christmas for sure before i could get it in. thanks again - if anyone else has any suggestions, i'm open [/QUOTE]
