NO power schemes listed 1

Oops. Sorry for typo in "now power schemes listed" ...

I wondered why my Sony laptop's screen hadn't powered off (just the screen - not the whole machine).

I checked Display Properties/Screen Saver/Power and saw that all the fields for "plugged in" and "running on batteries" where ghosted and there were no Power Schemes in the pull-down list.

The laptop can hibernate by closing the lid or by momentarily pressing the power button.

I've looked in the registry and under Class User/.../Power I can see not only the standard schemes but a couple I've previously set and saved.

Any ideas how to get the power schemes listed again in the Power Schemes?

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

That was exactly right!


If you weren't already feeling good about your level of knowledge - feel MUCH better as Sony Vaio support had no idea how to resolve this!!!!!!

Thanks again.
