OX 10.4.11. Screen freezes when I stop working on computer. Usually can happen anywhere from 5 minutes to hours after I leave and come back.
It doesnt happen when I'm working on computer and it doesnt seem to matter what programs I leave open. Ive tried zapping the pram...disabling the screensaver..I did an archive and install of the operating sysem (actually surprized myself by doing that one ) Ive run a disk utility and hardware check..
My computer is running a lot faster now, but it still has frozen up and needs to be restarted by holding down the button for a few seconds.
 
Describe freeze? Do you mean spinning beachball of doom freeze where the mouse moves, or the mouse pointer freezes where it sits and won't move?
 
Try some key commands (command+option+esc) or better yet a usb keyboard/mouse to verify its not a flaky trackpad issue. Perhaps try swapping the RAM for known good RAM.
