Hi ,
I had a G4 w/20 inch monitor with an hd system . I bought it brand new
the whole package computer and all from sweatwater sound . Here is what happened over a 6 months time . The G4 would randomly shut down and even turn on by it's self . I sent the computer back to sweetwater , they could find nothing . They even refused to take it back in on a trade for a g5 , although my sales person was doing the best he could for me . I continued to work with them - no luck . ended up buying a g5 and installing the hardware by myself . - so much for " proffessional setup ". Kept the apple 20 " monitor - guess what it still happened ! Worked with apple it found out it was the monitor . there is a setting you can use to disable power savor on the monitor for a temporary fix , but the monitor had to be repaired by apple . Sorry for the rant , but I have had the same problem , and learned a valuble lesson as far as having someone "setup a package" for you . -- Check your monitor .
Hope this helps,
Mike
