Try resetting the Power Manager which I have discovered seems to be curing
my same problem. Lift the Key board and look at the upper right hand corner
through the kidney shaped opening. You should see a small switch there on
the logic board. Shut down, disconnect the AC adapter and press the button.
Wait 10 seconds and restart with AC Adapter in or out. See if that helps.
