Hi

Does anyone know if it is possible to disable the Power Save Management??? It's annoying me!!! Checked my bios and it cant be disabled from there, Every time I reboot The monitor settings get changed back to 20mins!! Could this be done through the registry>

Control Panel, Power Options
Disable Hibernation and set all other settings.

Righ-click a blank area of your Desktop, Properties, Screen Saver tab, and set the screensaver to none. It is likely the settings found here that are important.

 
Ok I've created a regedit file to disable the screen saver, that was easy.

Im unable to change the settings of the powersave management using regedit as every time it gets rebooted it changes back to its orignal settings. I think there most be a group policy setting these but, I thought using regedit I would be able to simply switch of power management!

Is this possible?
