This section contain some common problems encountered by users and possible solutions to fix them.
• Problem: I put my computer to sleep but when I wake it up I get a blank screen or the computer does not wake completely!!
• Cause/Solution 1: You probably have another energy saving program like Energy Saver installed which is interfering with proper operation of the Comatose. Please remove that or any other application from either the Control Panels or Extension folder and restart your computer.
• Cause/Solution 2: You may be attempting to put the computer to sleep in the middle of a task in progress. For example, you are sending a file over your apple network or saving a large graphics file when you activate Comatose. Although Comatose can handle this properly, another extension or system resource make take too much time and cause the Comatose to malfunction. For best results, put your computer to sleep only when it is idle.
• Problem: I put my computer to sleep but Zip or EZ135 would not spin down!
• Cause/Solution 1: Most removable drives are not really hard drives. Their drivers fool the system to believe they are so they can be displayed as drives on your desktop. As a result, commands that Comatose sends to put the "Hard Disk" to sleep are ignored by these drives.
