Decided I check out my sleep problem before I take the beast apart for the upgrade.
Started up in OS 9.2.1 and tried to get it to go to sleep, the screen goes dark, sleep light blinks once and it immediately wakes up. Same thing in OS 10.2.3! Close the lid, sleep light blinks but I can hear the hard drive cycling. With all the other tests I've run, I'm now fairly certain my power manager card is faulty. I guess I'll spend the time waiting for my upgrade being returned trying to confirm it. Anyone on the list ever see the power manager fail this way? Resetting per the Apple technical article does no good, neither does zapping the PRAM. Joe Ellis -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
