Hi,
Had a box do this after a few years. Turned out I'd selected a power
supply that was barely adequate (250W for 2 SCSI drives, 2 CDs, lots of
cards). I pulled a hard drive and it went back to reliable operation. Put
the drive back, bumped the power supply by a hundred watts and all is well.
Cheers,
Mike
