    Resolved [RESOLVED] Power option properties in win XP

    This morning, I opened my Win XP "power option properties" to change the time of shutting down of my monitor when my PC is idled. I realized that it has changed to the pic I included as attachment. Very strange.
    Before,I used to be able to choose from 1 min, 15min , etc...
    Is there another way of setting my display to shut off at certain time?
    My display is still off at 1 minute ( the time I have set it to be)
    Thanks
    Ngan

    What happens if you select on of the items from the drop down menu?

    Here is a Registry file that should restore the power schemes:
