While I think the restart problem is due to a bad connection in the power circuit, caused by vibrations or even heat, it could still be the PRAM battery. In my 5 years experience with Starmaxes I would say that 90% of all problems are connected to a weak or dead battery. An excellent article on how a run down battery can effect almost anything by effecting the PRAM can be found on the Yahoo Starmax-Talk site. Its not hard to test the voltage of the PRAM battery. If you have a machine that has the battery located in a difficult spot to get to, just move it. The leads should be long enough. drscheiner
