[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1667788, member: 131855"] OK that clarifies things a bit. It certainly sounds like it is going into sleep mode instead of a complete power down. Here's something to check that should get you straightened out: 1. Go to System Preferences (under the Apple in the upper left corner of the screen or in the Dock). 2. Open the Energy Saver Preference Pane. 3. Look at the settings for Screen Display Sleep and Computer Sleep. You can adjust the sliders to give more time before the system goes to sleep. The farther you move the soldiers to the right the longer the system or screen wait before going to sleep. 4. If the settings are grayed out and you can't change them click the padlock and enter your administrator password. The screen display can be set with a separate sleep time from the computer. Edit: You beat me to it. Nice work. Feels good to solve your own problem doesn't ti? [/QUOTE]
