Also some iMac infected???

Hi.

I have a iMac from begining of 2006. I also registered a suddenly shutdown and restart of my iMac. Last shutdown was in the night from 04.09.2006 to 05.09.2006. I remember this because of the windows showing up and I had minimised them before I leave the computer.

For getting closer to the problem I stage my configuration to charge 100% on both kernels. I did that with a little programm, mp3player, and a second task, file salvage, for getting lost files from a HD. But that didn’t gave a result. I let these task running half a day, more then 12 hours, and the iMac runs and runs on 100% charged. But in the next night the iMac shut’s down ones again :-( . Also at the next day when I was working with my Mac.

For getting closer the the problem I used a firewire HD with a fresh installed OS and let run the iMac again more then 24 hours and it also shut’s down in the night and when I was working at the next day :-( ( Sometimes I have this behavior more than ones in 12 hours working on my Mac.

Should I backup all and send the computer to repair? And what should I tell the service?

Feeling unpleasant to send the computer out of home…
