[QUOTE="Joematarazz, post: 1313512, member: 219134"] Yes, my friend's adapter was an original Apple Magsafe and it did the same thing. Booted into MAC OS X and shortly after, the screen goes suddenly black and then it starts up like I just powered it on. Here is an interesting extra piece of information. I pulled the battery out (Also a non original Apple) and left the laptop powered on with the non Apple magsafe. It seemed OK for a while. I then put the battery back in and booted in single user mode and left it alone for a while. No problem, no reboot. I re-seated the memory just for kicks and it hasn't rebooted so far. I will keep it on that way some extra time today... Don't think it is the power adapter since it did the same thing with a Apple and non Apple type. [/QUOTE]
