Recently I read about resetting the SMC
Desktop Mac Pros, iMacs and Mac minis
Shut down and unplug the Mac.
Keep the Mac unplugged for at least fifteen seconds.
Plug the Mac back in and do not turn it back on for at least five seconds.
Press the power button to turn the Mac back on.
I also live in Florida where the electricity is brutal, So I bought a UPS and plugged my Mini Mac and TV into it... I also turn OFF the UPS when Im not using the computer or TV... In essence I am resetting my SMC all the time...
Just thought I'd pass this along...
