It might be worth a shot to disassemble it since it is already out of warranty, but I would go to the apple store first to see if they can do anything for you. If they can give you a diagnostic, then you can decide wether or not you could fix it for yourself. I had a funny problem with my iMac about a year ago, the computer would boot fine but it would randomly restart; sometimes during the booting process, somethings after running for an hour. After I took it to the apple store, they discovered a bad wire that was screwing up the heat sensors. It was really cheap to fix. So you never know, you could get lucky and just have something small thing like that seem like a big problem. Best of luck</blockquote>
