Actually, the power schemes functionality in Vista Home Premium SP1 are sporadic at best. Sometimes I can invoke the recommended settings and they'll take but sometimes they don't and when I think my computer has gone into a power saving mode, I come back to it and find it's still up and running. WITHOUT any applications open! Why is this? And how do I remedy it? Thanks. |

In Vista, where is the scheduler (which gives you a clue that I certainly haven't set any scheduled events.) |
