Starting troubles; Alternator? 700

That is still inidicative of a failing starter. The accessories turned off allowing the car to start situation is because you are removing just enough electrical load for the current to spin the starter. I will be very interested to hear the solution. It is possible your alternator is beginning to weaken and is exposing a failing starter sooner than it otherwise would.
