An old problem has returned. I recently bought a used rev B. The
owner had added ram and upgraded to 9.1. I upgraded it to 9.2.4. Right after I bought it, and now again the screen began to go to sleep by itself. If I use the restart menu command, it sounds like it's restarting, but the button light screen stays green, and the screen stays dark. The push-pin force restart button(hole) doesn't restart the computer. Sometimes when I restart it the green light doesn't come on (or turn orange first), and I hear the fan, but no screen. The only way I can use my computer is to shut down, cut power, then start it and it works. I've zapped the pram, rebuilt the desktop, tried extensions off, Mac all extensions on, Disk First Aid, etc. I don't own any disk repair utilities. This all cleared up for a while, thought I don't know why, but has returned to haunt me.
I haven't done a clean reinstall as I don't have the disk, but can probably get it from the previous owner. Any ideas out there? Thanks.
