[QUOTE="Barnyg, post: 1366704, member: 156403"] Can someone please let me know if the following is a simple fix or is gonna cost me the earth?? My Mac Pro sometimes refuses to power up. The front button gives no response - sometimes for a couple of days, sometimes for a couple of hours. If the Mac goes to SLEEP then upon waking it makes a really loud fan noise and despite being powered up the monitor will stay black and it's unresponsive. I've set it to never sleep as a result. In the last few days it has been 'freezing' randomly. Once on screen saver (the images that usually animate and dissolve just froze) or while using text edit. Both time I had to pull power from the tower. Ouch. Any clues/tips/help greatly appreciated. Many thanks. [/QUOTE]
