Tru,
I was not arguing with you about the power supply and it could well be the problem. I just like to make sure there is no software problem before I start changing hardware. And Fred's statement that this started after he added the APC sounded like a good place to start to me. I have never had a bad power supply in one of my computers, but have changed them in others and I never saw one that would just turn the computer on when it was shut off. But with these so called modern marvels, anything is possible. He could take the computer down to the store where they work on them and they can test that in a short time.
Hope that your weather is better by now and you can start driving soon. We have had almost two weeks of high 70s and low 80s and now it is supposed to rain for the next four days. I wanted to go driving yesterday but had to take my last little dog back to the hospital and leave him and I don't know what is going to happen to him. So I just really don't have the heart to get out and try to have fun right now.
Ron
