Brian,

   There have been some problems with e-macs and bad capacitors I just
took my daughters to the apple store for repair. It was well out of
warranty, but apple fixed it for free. There is a recall on some of
the emacs and imacs due to the problem. Check out
http://www.apple.com/support/emac/repairextensionprogram/ to see if
yours is covered.
