Hey folks,

For some reason, the past couple of days my MacBook has decided to dim the screen before sleep. I've checked the settings multiple times, even placing enabling the option, restarting, then unchecking the option and restarting, but the same result happens. I have no idea why it's doing this but it's annoying because I read a lot of lengthy medical articles, studies, and journals.

Is there a fix out there in the wild that I'm not aware of? I'm about to the point where I want to do a clean install of Tiger...not just because of this but also my Safari is crashing randomly. I haven't done anything different to my MB and it was working fine last week.

Thanks :)
 
apple acknowledges this issue. unfortunately their tips are completely useless regarding this topic.
