BlackBook Restarts When Closed

[Eve]

I bought a BlackBook less than a year ago (July 2007) and for a couple weeks now it will restart when I close the lid. It doesn't restart every time, just sometimes. Now, I would just go to the Apple Store and have them look at it, but the closest one is an 1.5 away. Anything else I can do besides going to the Apple Store?

Have you tried the usual reset of the PMU and PRAM?

Have you tried the usual reset of the PMU and PRAM?

Those will frequently take care of start-up issues. Do you know how to do the reset?

Check your RAM. This seems to be a common problem. Mine did this too due to an incorrectly seated RAM chip.

Same thing

Having the same trouble with a white MacBook, which is just over a year old. Did any of these suggestions work?
