I know this very well, but I was more thinking about pressing down on keys of the keyboard, which is right on top of the cooling plate. You wrote: >THe link to the te shortcuts must be simply that I press the >keyboard a littl e bit harder when I use a shortcut " and also: >pressing the keyboard may trigger the shut down Even if you also wrote: > If only I >press the space to the right of the trackpad, and also the right part of >the kayboar, creates the crash. this doesn't mean you can rule out the CPU seating completely. I'm not saying it's particularly likely to be the cause either. One other possibility is that any pressing on the top part or affecting the top part affects the PMU or a cable connected to it. The PMU in my experience if malfunctioning can shut down the WS. But there are more possibilities of course. Also, another reason for my reseat suggestion is that some problems with WS-machines I've dealt with have been solved simply by taking apart the machine and putting it together again (very thoroughly). One of them had the exact symptoms you describe except that it was pressing on the CD- Drive bezel that caused immediate shut down. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
