You should get them proof-read on debian-l10n-german, as
there are some mistakes:

Should be "Verhalten", not "verhalten" (its as noun).
 
> msgid "<b>When the computer starts up</b>"
> msgstr "<b>Beim hochfahren des Computers</b>"
Should be "Hochfahren", not "hochfahren" ("beim" being
"bei dem" means that "Hochfahren" is a noun).
