Hi terry b.,

Success, it works!!! To complete the archive, here's what I did --

Export a copy of your Registry settings (or at least the parts you are
going to change) for backup.

If you're not averse to playing around in the registry, Doug Knox has
some suggestions here: [He was replying to a question much like yours]

"You may need to adjust the permissions in the Registry for this to
be possible. When power settings are changed, a number of changes are
made to the Registry.

Open REGEDIT and go to each key indicated. Right
click and select Permissions. Users, and possibly Restricted need
Write and Modify access to these keys."

HKCU\Control Panel\PowerCfg\PowerPolicies\0\Policies

give Full Control to REGISTERED

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\PowerCfg

give Full Control to REGISTERED

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\PowerCfg\GlobalPowerPolicy

give Full Control to REGISTERED

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Controls
Folder\PowerCfg\PowerPolicies\0\Policies

give Full Control to Users(Machine name\Users)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Controls
Folder\PowerCfg\GlobalPowerPolicy

give Full Control to Users(Machine name\Users)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session
Manager\Power

give Full Control to Users(Machine name\Users)

Hope this helps someone else in the future.

Matt
