Every time I put the Mac to sleep it cuts out when waking. Then I have to unplug it let it stand awhile then reboot it. Anybody have any ideas I have tried different configurations of ram to see if that was the issue but the same thing happens. This all started when I removed the CD drives IDE cable when the Mac was switched on.
Knowing the configuration, ie model, OS, etc… will allow list members to give informed advice rather than wild guesses. At this point my best guess would be to reset the pram/nvram. My iMac's display would not wake from sleep when I first got it, turned out to be bad ROM (?) flashed to the logic board. Given how old the G5s are I doubt that is your issue unless someone has recently monkeyed with it.
If there is no fix for this is there away to disable the sleep option all together so I don't sleep the Mac by mistake.
Sleep is controlled in the Energy Saver preference pane, you can disable it there.
