- 24" IMAC ALU, 2.8GHZ, 4GB ram, 750gb HD, Leopard OSX.
Hi everyone,
Just wondered if anyone else has this problem.
I have a new Alu Imac 24" 4GB ram.
Every time I leave it alone for longer than 5 minutes (i.e. its not actually performing a task) I get a blue screen and the thing just locks up.
Thought it was a screensaver problem so disabled screensaver.
STILL the thing locks up. I have to press and hold the power button to switch it off and then on again. Afterwards everything is fine. Checked with Apple support website. Downloaded latest updates.
The problem still persists.
I have read of problems with lockup on these new Alu Imacs (my 'old' white Imac NEVER locked up) and I am unsure if it's hardware or software.
I am running the latest Leopard OSX and it is bang up to date according to Apples website.
Is my Imac just getting lonely when I leave it on without touching it's keyboard ( not sure if I love or loath this new flat keyboard ) or asking it to perform for me ? Any suggestions ?
And if you answer Macheadcase,........ I will KNOW that you never sleep...... do you ever sleep? Love the blog by the way......
