[X4U] How much can it cost

[Dave B]

The Main Logic Board is a possible culpit, but I'd wager it isn't the  
cause of the problem. As others have suggested, the battery is  
possibly the issue, and it is easy to remove, test and replace. The  
power supply could also be faulty. As could the CPU's and the RAM.

I'd start with checking the battery, then testing the RAM. You didn't  
mention the start-up chime. Has it changed?
