Sleep Issues On Powermac G5

[izzle22]

Someone Help Please! My 4 month old Powermac has just recently aquired a sleep problem. When I put it to sleep for an extended amount of time(8 hours or more) and try to wake it, it goes back to sleep after 10 seconds. I have reset the pram done an archive and install and repaired permissions. What could be wrong? Apple can't seem to figure it out over the phone and I don't want to take it in for service. Any Ideas?

Take it off of whatever pills you are giving it.

There have been reports of G5s having trouble sleeping with their fans, but this I have never heard of. Sorry to say it but you might be in for a trip to an Apple Store.

What model machine is it? (Dual 1.8/2.0/2.5)?? How much RAM?

It's a 2.0 dual with 1 g of ram. Thanx

If you did a archive and install and it still had the problem its a hardware problem, not a software problem. You probably have to take it in for service.

Could it be my USB hub??

There is only one way to find out isn't there?

I think what Chris here means is: unplug it and everything you DON'T need. Only have keyboard, monitor, and mouse plugged in. Then see what happens.
