    does it get shut down regularly?
    - shutting them off once or twice a week, and over the weekend i've always done for years and never had a problem

    how old is it? how exactly does it do it's madness?
    - at the last company i was at, it was an older g5 1.6Ghz. it would randomly just go black (the screen) a few times a day. turns out it was the fan going bad and the cpu was at it's max degree and was shutting off as not to overheat. the quick fix was to buy a small fan and put it on the desk blowing at the g5. the real fix was replacing the fan.

    hope that helps.
