Hi, I'm playing with my Energy Saver options. I want to backup with Dantz, which should take about an hour, then have the machine go to sleep. I think the reason the fan broke is I failed to understand the difference between screen saver and sleep, and had the computer set to sleep=never because it messed up my iMate. (Not using the iMate anymore) Can I do this? I have it set now to sleep=never, display=15 min., checked=put hard drive to sleep when possible. I want it to back up, but not go to sleep in the middle and abort the back up. But I also do not want to have to get out of bed to put the machine back to sleep. (It's 4am over here.)
