Hey everyone,
Lately my MBP has been going to sleep at random moments. I could be watching a video or typing a paper it doesn't matter. Here's what happens:
1) Screen goes blank (screen power on but its black)
2) Fans go to full rpm
3) It stays like this for 20-30 seconds
4) The computer enters sleep mode
5) If I press the power button it will shut the computer down, but if i close the lid and then reopen it the computer will wake up
This issue has been going on for a few months (about 2-3 times a month) but now its happening 6-7 times a week. I completely wiped the drive and installed a fresh copy of SL to no avail. I'm thinking its a hardware issue but my laptop is no longer under warranty so i haven't taken it to apple.
Any ideas/help would be appreciated.
