Tom:
Thanks for the reply.
I recall that on some machines, a bad or marginal PRAM battery can
cause all kinds of goofiness.
But, I am not losing dates/times, etc., which is the classic symptom
of a bad battery.
However, I will try the new PRAM battery next.
Thanks,
Rob J.

found...unplug the machine for 30 seconds to a minute, then plug
it back in. Then it will start up normally.
I think that same problem in my case is caused by a dead battery
which I haven't taken the time to replace.
