I can not change the power management option within user account. When I try to change it I get
access is denied message. It works within an administer account, but it only affects the administer
account not the user account. How can I get my power management option to work?

Hi,
If you have XPSP2 then you can use powercfg utility to look at the power
settings and change them.
see:-

[same applicable for XPSP2]

With powercfg I get that error
"An unexpected error condition has occurred. Unable to perform operation. You may not have
permission to perform this operation."
