Configure Power options in control panel for a group of PC's

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.group_policy (More info?)

The only way I was able to do this was to give admin rights to the user, log
in as the user change the settings then take the admin rights away. although
I still have had some issues where the setting will not hold no matter what I
have done.

Hope this helps

I thought about creating a regular user with admin rights - change power
settings in profile- take away admin rights - copy this profile to the
default user profile. That way anyone new logging in would recieve proper
power settings. That should work right?
Thanks
