[comp.sys.mac.hardware] Intermittantly dead Mac IIx

We have a IIx that won't come up when the Apple 80SC hard
drive is connected.  When we disconnect the external hard
drive from the back of the system, it will power up.
The wierd part is, if we reconnect the (already powered
up ) external hard drive, once the system is up, and 
restart the system, it comes up fine.  Any ideas?
The system has an internal floppy and an internal
hard drive and runs unix.  Please send email to

Thanks.
