The following comes up on several of my xp workstations pro on Win NT4.0 network

The computer is in use and has been locked.
Only Domain/user or an administrator can unlock this computer - press Ctrl + alt + del to unlock this machine.

One computer was a new install to network domnain domain, the other computer does this randomly.

My answer was - log the user with their rights changed on the server to include the groups " administrator". THen I went back and logged them back in twice (xp quirk) and I was able to change the power settings.

I' will see if this works... If anyone else has encountered this I would like to know. I will see if this works later.

Thanks.
