Hi all I have had this iMac for about 6 weeks now and every now and then it won't wake from sleep mode. Reading this on the net it's a huge problem. I have just installed a new HDD and a fresh install of Lion yesterday. After about 8 hours of use it locked in sleep mode. The screen is dark but keyboard and mouse won't work. Caps lock light doesn't work either. Some people report pressing the power button once then a key works but this doesn't work for me. Being new to mac's this is not good (LOL) as I'm about to smash this thing and go back to a PC. Only 3 times in the 6 weeks it has frozen on me with the mouse not moving at all and needs a hard restart. Since reloading Lion yesterday, doing all updates etc I have loaded the minimum apps etc to see if this helps. I'm just worried it's hardware and i'm stuck with a dud. Thanks guys.
