gaggerstow - Oct 18, 2006 - 9:12 pm
I just hooked up a Fantom 500gb external drive to my 1.25 Powermac G5. Now, when I try to put the computer to sleep, the monitor shuts off for about a second and the computer starts back up again. So, essentially, I cann't put the computer asleep unless I un-mount the Fantom drive.
Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
