My Mac has been shutting off by itself with no warning. Sometimes it takes me 5-6 times to get it up and running.
Got a tip for us?

sounds like it is over heating. try downloading a temp program and check your temp.

Do the fans race like mad before it happens? I had issues with my G5. First the power supply and then pretty much everything else went. Had it overhauled like twice and then I wrote to Steve Jobs and they gave me a new MacPro.

Nope, it's not the temp. What else could it be? I thought it was the power strip, but now have it plugged directly into the wall.

We opened it up, couldn't find any buttons. Vacuumed it out, put it back together. I went to pick up the kids, and when I got back the darn thing was off again!
