First the specs of this machine. It's a Dual 1.25 G4 Powermac MDD.
It's bone stock except for having 1.25gb ram, and an Apple combo drive
in the second bay. The problem I'm having is it will never auto sleep.
I understand that some PCI cards can cause this problem, but I have
none installed. I've tried everything short of installing a new OS to
fix the problem, and with little to show for it. I'm kinda hoping this
is an easy fix because I hate the idea of this thing running 24/7.
Anyway, this is what it's doing. I'll set the energy saver panel to
put the computer at some value, and when that time is reached, the
monitor immediately shuts down, but everything continues to roar
inside the case. Occasionally I'll hear the hard drive spin down, to
only hear it immediately spin up again. All the problematic option in
the control panel are switched off (spinning hard drive down when
possible, or wake for various things), I've removed the multiple
preference files, flashed the pram, unplugged all USB devices, ect.
I'm stuck, and open to ideas. Thanks guys.
