WHY WON'T MY COMPUTER STAY ON?

When I turn my computer on, the light on the lower right hand corner doesn't stay on. Additionally (and more importantly) when my computer goes to sleep, it actually shuts off. It used to just go to sleep and I could hit a key to get it back on. Now it just shuts off when it goes in to sleep mode. Thanks, NLVS

nlsv,
Welcome to the forum. You have posted your question in a forum dedicated to AppleScript, Apple's script language.
A post to a forum dedicated to your hardware would find an audiance with the expertise you seek. When you post there it would help if you post more info about your computer.

nlsv,

As Reese pointed out, this is wrong forum for your particular question.

However, there is a long discussion about folks whose Macs are randomly shutting down over in the MacBook forum. You may want to check out the forum thread and see if anything applies to your situation...

The problem was also mentioned on MacFixIt today and on the 7/14 edition of The MacCast.

HTH,
Steve
