[QUOTE="m1k, post: 51877"] Ahh, that's pretty screwed up then :(. I suggest turning off auto-go-to-sleep. System Preferences -> Energy Saver -> Slide the 1st dial (Put the computer to sleep when it's inactive for: ) all the way to the right, so it's set to 'Never'. This will mean that your PB will never go to sleep. You should probably keep it like this until you fix it. Also, when you close your PowerBook, does it go to sleep like it's supposed to, and when you open your PowerBook, does it wake up like it's supposed to? Just wondering. Definitely take it in though, it sounds like a hardware problem. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
