My iMac DVSE is starting to behave strange. It is shutting off for no reason. Then using the power button I am unable to restart the computer until after several hours later.

Mac CPU temperature has been 66C during Seti. It has done this twice this week processing Seti units. Now it happened to my sister in-law who was using her account. Seti was not running at the time and the system had only been on for about two hours. It took ~4 hours before the computer would restart when pushing the power button.

I think I am going to push it so that it can be duplicated when I take it to an authorized repair center for AppleCare Warranty work. My three years is up this March.
