By 'click and shut off' are describing a situation like you pulled the power cord out or does this mean a normal OS shut down? Do you have a bunch of USB stuff hanging off of the computer? Bus powered firewire units? My gut feeling is that like others have stated, look at the iMac's power supply. Is the computer still under warranty? :) Jens On Feb 24, 2006, at 12:28 PM, Winston MacKelvie wrote: > Anyone have a clue as to what would cause my one piece iMac G5 with > 10.4.5 to suddenly click and shut off at random times.
