[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1506506"] The reason the reboot took longer than normal was because it was repairing itself. It sounds like the power failed or came loose so you were playing on battery. The game probably hid the "reserve power" warning (they often do in full-screen). The UPS may not be working correctly or may be dead (they do die over time). There could be other possible factors but I'd say to run OnyX or at least Disk Utility and then don't worry about it unless it happens again. [/QUOTE]
