Anyone experience issue with waking up the latest MBP from sleep? It happened twice to mine recently. I close the lid as usual to put it to sleep. After a couple of hours when I open the lid, the screen is blank (as if it's not swithed on) but I can feel the hard disk is still spinning quietly.

No, I didn't. Everthing is as it is. MBP 13.3, 3 months old.

one thing have to be remembered is that macos is tailor made for mac hardwares and fully functions best together

windows are designed to run on different types of system/hardwares and it works correctly/best with properly supported devices/drivers.

to expect windows to work like macos in a mac hardware is... what should i put it as.. umm.. (put ur term here)

i believe i read somewhere.. battery life on macos is much better than in windows when running in macbook

Using Mac OS mate. I have tried googling for answers, most of them suggested using Terminal to tweak the sleep mode settings. Something along the line of switching the default sleep mode of #3 to #0. But the main issue here is I'd like to know what cause this happen?

Guys, I'm having a 'no entry' sign everytime I boot up my MBP but when I can go to safe mode, restart and it will be back to normal. It's just that once I shut it down, the problem will come up again when I want to boot up. I ran Apple Hardware Test with the applications CD and found nothing wrong. I even verified my Macintosh HD, repaired disk, verified permissions and repaired permissions.

Additionally, I have tried the method of resetting PVRAM by pressing Command + Option + P + R during boot up but to no avail!

I think I have exhausted almost all the options available. Does that mean I must do a clean reinstallation of my Mac OS now?

I'm currently on 10.6.2, which is upgraded using the SL upgrade CD.
