Hi Kary: This really sounds like an issue to consult Apple's tech support about. Someone there might be able to point you to a more long term solution. I don't know if you have tried doing a search of the Apple site for the issue, but it might be worth a look.
Best of luck, and I hope you don't end up having to take your Mac in.
