View Full Version : Power Save mode loads


February 16th 04, 03:05 PM
For no apparent reason I have a WindowsXP box that
occasionally will go into "Power Save" mode after user
has left their PC for more than 1/2 hour. None of the
Power Settings are set to do this however. All power
settings are set to "never" and Power Scheme is set to
none. Any suggestions?

Hi,

Yes, check the system BIOS power management settings.
