View Full Version : Limited User Account Question

Should a limted user account be able to change the power
scheme setting in XP? I need the user to have access to
disable the standby feature, but get an Access Denied
error. If I go in under an administrator account I am
able to change the setting, but only for that account sign-
on. Can someone please help me out?

Thanks,
Serena

I THINK it's something to do with Local Security Settings (Control
Panel-Administrative Tools) but I can't see anything there immediately.
