[QUOTE="technologist, post: 851751, member: 4134"] I would make a backup of anything and everything on that machine you want to save. Right now. You'd be well advised to try steps 6-10 from the troubleshooting list ([url]http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/os-x-operating-system/93819-basic-os-x-mac-troubleshooting.html[/url]) as well as a PMU reset (Google it.) But make a good backup first. I think there's a good chance that your hard disk and/or logic board may be dying, especially considering the age of your machine. [/QUOTE]
