powercfg

[allan]

Hi,

Is there anyway to set power config by a batch file and
regkey import?

I try to set power config to 'presentation' so the
machine is always on.

while logon to the domain, the only user can change the
power setting seems the administrator...others can't even
they are granted the administrator's right on the local.

thanks

al
