>I need help in diagnosing a computer that "dies" at irregular intervals. It stays dead for various periods of time, sometimes hours, sometimes several days up to a week. During that time it is just is inoperative. When it's turned on,with one exception, the various indicator light pop on and off but nothing results. The only (maybe) significant clue I have is that if the "A" drive light blinks on and off then I know that it going to boot up, When that light doesn't blink then I know that I'll just have to turn it off and wait for the machine to "wake up" again - as I said this can be days literally.

Not sure if you mean "hibernating" as defined by Microsoft and others or if you just mean it won't turn on. If the latter, you may be having power supply problems. See my separate posting on "power supply connection." Your symptoms sound like mine.
