I tried to sleep my computer last night. When I woke up this morning, the fans were at full blast.
I had to unplug the machine to reset it. When it rebooted it was ok fortunatly. So much for using sleep.
Anyone else have this issue?
Thanks

Re: Sleep issues with G5 2.5
Did you check Apple Software Update to see if you need the G5 Firmware update - it was released to solve deep sleep issues (among other things).

Reset the PMU/SMU - see Apple's Knowlege Base for instructions. Sleep is a function of the Power Manager, so a reset would be the first place to start.
BTW, PMU= Power Management Unit; SMU = System Managment Unit - SMU is replacing PMU on newer systems.

Re: Sleep issues with G5 2.5
The late 2004 firmware update fixed my "fan on full blast during sleep" problem.
A friend of mine with a dual 2.5 had a bad video card which cased the same symptoms. A new one from Apple solved the problem.
