I am trying to turn off the display after 30 minutes of inactivity. But
nothing seems to be changing. As administrator, it works fine. On
Vista, can a normal user change the Power Options?

A normal user can change the display power settings. Power
settings are global, when one user changes them, the change
applies to all users, including administrators. You are clicking
the Save Changes button?



Thank you for replying. Yes, I am saving the changes after modifying
the power settings. It is only working for the Administrator. For
regular user accounts the display is left on all the time regardless
what I set it to in the power settings. I am using Vista Ultimate.

Hopefully someone from Microsoft is reading this.
