Mac-Live Crashes Computer when left idle over 5 minutes

[Mr. Anxiety]

I'm on Mac 5.0.3 using via rewire in Nuendo 2.2.39 in OSX 10.3.8 with RME 96/52 card and a firewire drive with my Live samples on it.

When ever I walk away for 5 minutes or so, my computer crashes (color wheel).

Whenever I work w/o Live, I can let it sit overnight with no crash.

Could it be the firewire drive that houses the sounds I use in live, going to sleep, etc.?

It's very annoying and always happens.

Thanks for any help forthcoming

Mr. A

could be, do you have any network shares open?

Did you ever resolve this problem?

Ableton Live 6 crashes EVERY time I leave it idle for more than about 10 minutes. I'm using it with M-Audio 2496.

I'm a newbie to Ableton, but I've used the same setup with a PG Music Power Tracks with no problem.

I'm a little dissappointed so far with Ableton. It loads up real slow, midi songs don't load up correctly, and Ableton seems to get confused between GS instrument output and M-Audio output.
