Time to try the 'PRAM Reset' routine (Unknown garbage in PRAM settings can cause some rather strange situations.) While 'booting' (Immediately after pressing the power button) Hold down the 'alt/option', 'command' (apple), 'p', and 'r' keys. Continue holding these keys depressed for at least

Thanks much, everybody! I guess, based on the info above, I'll avoid the 733 Quicksilvers, if they have unreliable power supplies (I've got enough of that trouble already) and do as Len says and either look for a 933 or 1 GHz Quicksilver. I see on the EveryMac website, which gives the specs for va
