[QUOTE="lokerd, post: 10267"] Thanks for the reply. The machine is 9.2.2. VM is on. The machine is about 4-5 years old. It is an iMac 266 G3. Multipe Users is enabled. Some inits are turned off: Dektop printing and speech, specifically. I have not installed any intis, other than what might have been installed by the few programs I have put on there such as Internet Explorer, SuperPaint, PageMaker, and a few others...but this machine is configured just like the other 14 computers. Any other clues that might help? I haven't done a whole lot of trouble shooting, other than the obvious with the Energy Saver Control Panel trying to isolate what part of it is crashing, or keeping the computer from waking up. I was sort of hoping somebody would say, "Oh, that's easy....do this..." To describe what it is doing a bit better, you can hear that the computer is still responsive, you just can't get the monitor to come up. BUT, even doing a pin reset will NOT bring the monitor back up. The computer has to be unplugged for a minute. Then it comes back up. So, any ideas? Thanks! Drew [/QUOTE]
