I have a 24inch, 3.06ghz, 4gb ram, iMac running snow leopard. It falls asleep every time I use it even when im just surfing the web. I have reformatted the drive, and used techtool pro to see if anything is wrong (it passed all the tests)but it continues to fall asleep. Could this be the ram? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Looks like its the same problem from the other thread. I got the same error code. Is this an easy fix? is it expensive?
