now power schemes listed 2

[afx]

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?

Do you log in to a domain? If so, find out from the system administrators if they have a group policy in place already specifying these settings. If not, look within your local policy (gpedit.msc at the command prompt) to see if there is a setting in there. I don't have one on mine, but who knows.....
