Today, my mac started to behave very strangely.

I left my mac with an external hard drive on for the night.  When I woke up
this morning and tried to run BlitzMail ( a local mail program) the mac gave me
a ID 10 system error.  Then I restarted the mac with the reset button since when
I pressed the restart button in the sys error dialog box it didn't work.  After
the hard drive chugged along for a while I got a sad mac code 0F00A.

For the next twenty, I struggled to find out what was wrong with it.  The
strange thing was that the hard drive booted for some of the times and couldn't
boot some of times.  When the hard drive booted up, sometimes, when I try to
run an application, it would accidentally freeze up.

The only regularity I figured out that this thing has was that when I get this
sad mac code 0F00A, I could turn the machine and hard drive off for about 20
minutes and then turn them on, it would boot.

Does anyone know what this sad mac code   0F00A is ?
what ID 10 is ?

Thanks for the help!

Please respond through e-mail.
