I have a MacPro from Early 2007, and it will restart and at random times. It's not even at times where I'm doing something graphically, RAM-wise, or processor-wise intensive. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I could do to isolate the problem?

You might want to start with the Apple Hardware Test:

I tried holding down D, and it didn't work. It keeps going to the standard login page.– JShoeCommented Apr 2, 2013 at 4:42

That is weird. At least for the mid 2007 model it should work (see also the manual: manuals.info.apple.com/en/macbook_mid2007_userguide.pdf). I can't seem to find any specific information on the early 2007 model. There is some information on this issue in this link: discussions.apple.com/thread/3549995?start=0&tstart=0 It suggests also holding the option key (thus hold 'd' and option while booting). Have you tried that?– VincentCommented Apr 2, 2013 at 5:18

Well that first guide was for a MacBook Pro, and I'm having trouble with a MacPro.– JShoeCommented Apr 2, 2013 at 12:30
