Q: Mac Mini wake up issues
I can't seem to find the right wording to ask this question on google to get the answers I need. Basicly my Mac mini doesn't really go to sleep after being left alone for a few hours. When I come back I have to hit the power button to "wake" it, hitting the keys or moving the mouse does nothing, and it turns on as if it were recovering from a power outage (log in screen with the washed out white on top with a progress bar). This happens every time the computer is left for several hours. Any suggestions on how to get this computer from having to do this every time, or what may be causing the problem.
Mac mini, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4)

The sleepimage file still reappears even if never slept. Delete it (hibernate off, etc) - within minutes its back.
