[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 764538, member: 24160"] 1. Get Onyx or Main Menu and put one them through it's paces. Both are free. If you need help on what to do, try a search or ask away. 2. Turn your machine off - Get a can of compressed air - and spray it into the slot 2 or 3 times - in 2 or 3 different directions, just quick bursts. There could be a little dust on the laser causing it not to be able to calibrate properly. Don't turn it back on for 30 seconds afterwards, just in case you did get a little moisture in there. 3. Battery - no one has an idea of how you use the machine to give you help with this. Do you ever calibrate the battery as is [URL="http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh2339.html"]recommended[/URL]? And running the hardware test as suggested above is probably not a bad idea. [/QUOTE]
