Yes I have, both in the Group Policy and on the individual client machine. I've Opened up the policy by giving full rights to Everyone, the individual users etc. If I change the registry value on the client, for example, choosing which scheme (0-4) it will always revert to some type of default power scheme. I'm also logging onto the client machine as Administrator and even that account can't control the power settings... So, to answer you question, I have tried editing the reg values in the GPO and on the clients and have tried opening up permissions on the GPO and clients.

If you're running a domain, the group policy is likely controlled by the server - so these will always revert on the clients to the domain-wide settings.

when you say you are logging into the machine as the administrator is it the network administrator or are you logging into the local machine as the local machine admin (not authenticating with the PDC)

Receptional Andy RA - the problem is that I can't seem to get those settings for the domain to where I want them. I've been through the policy settings under the GPO a couple of times and I must be missing something. J_RaD I was logging as as the network adminstrator DOMAIN-Name\Administrator. All: I am going to try one other thing. One of my vendors is supposed to set up a conference call with a UPS manufacuter's rep. OUr thought is that the UPS folks have to have figured out how to manage power settings due to the nature of their product. I'll let you folks know what happens. chris
