DOH - what am I talking about- Command - option P-R - in too much of a hurry ! The only sleep problems for any of my Macs was the USB2.0 card as I already stated and the only time I replaced a main fan was in my Sawtooth and that was from another so it went straight in. If you still have the original fan you could cut the connector off and transplant it onto the new one. That would probably stop the fan problem but I am unsure of the display not waking from sleep. Do you have some display option turned off in the preferences for either display or energy saver ?
