When my A2500 boots up, the power light blinks 6x, the screen darkens for a sec then repeats the cycle. I can get it to come all the way up but I know something must be wrong. I have three harddrives and one of them is a little slow spinning up so when I start my system I hold down the mouse buttons and boot from the boot screen. This used to boot normally until the flashing pwr light. Am I doomed? How long does my beloved A2500 have to "live"? Any hints/help is greatly appreciated. I am not timid about opening up my system as I have done all the upgrades personally using good ESD practices. TIA. Chuck Wildey…on Auto…
