[QUOTE="cxviking, post: 1858466, member: 405160"] That may be the case, Randy. Today I brought it in to my tech guy and he is going to open it and give it a thorough cleaning, and try to see if it’s an overheat problem. He’s not one to do cold soldering - says all the soldering now is done by machine. Also hope it’s not the power supply because he says probably not one available for a Mac as old as this one. Before I brought it in, I ran the fan at 1600 rpm and it never powered down in 6 hours, so that sounds hopeful. [/QUOTE]
