[QUOTE="geekboy2000, post: 774030, member: 15055"] Well, you learn something new every day. Tonight, I discovered that the aluminum keyboard isn't recognized at startup on an early 2006 iMac. Workaround: Hold down the menu button on the Apple remote during restart to choose your startup device. :) Anyway, the disk repair determined that the drive was OK. Nothing repaired. I connected my old Apple keyboard so that I could do a PRAM reset. Too early to tell if that did anything, but I'm not optimistic. Any other suggestions as to where to look, or should I take it to the Genius Bar, and let them figure it out? Being intermittent though, I'm not sure they'll find anything. [/QUOTE]
