Power management rights

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm actually preparing a disk image in order to deploy it on new computers. Everything is great up to know except this : I can't get a domain user to change the power management scheme from a laptop. I'm also using a Win2k Server PDC and the laptop is on XPSP2 Pro. Since W2k Server doesn't have all XP's GPOs, I have to use a local and a UO-based GPO. I checked in both and I can't find anything about the schemes...

Note that I don't want the users to be local administrators (too much problems...). I did a little search on the forums and found something about an ADM file but I don't think that's what I need...

Thanks!

Run Regedit.exe as an administrator

Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Controls Folder\PowerCfg

Right-click on the “GlobalPowerPolicy” key and choose “Permissions”.

Click on the “Advanced” button.

Click “Add”.

Type INTERACTIVE and click “Check names”, then OK.

Check the “Set value” and “Create Subkey” checkboxes in the “Allow” column, and click OK, then OK, then OK.

Do the same thing with the “PowerPolicies” key.
