[QUOTE="Cpt. Morgan, post: 651318, member: 46361"] If you are running 10.5, download a program called SMCfancontrol. It allows you to set your fan speeds higher than default. I find apple default fan settings are to low to keep the temp down. Could you tell us the temperatures of you CPU etc? Your computer sounds like it is just protecting itself from over heating by going to sleep (thus cutting down the number of process, thus heat). [/QUOTE]
