Hello.
Running XP Home Edition (2004) on a Dell Dimension 8400
I went into my Power Options which had 2 profiles already set, changed one
of the items on one of the profiles, and attempted to Save it. I got an
error message that something or other was incompatible, and so it couldn't
be Saved. I exited Power Options, and opened it again, whereupon I
discovered that the Power Schemes tab had a grayed-out and blank display,
and none of the profiles was listed. No matter what I do, I can't get
those profiles back, and worse, can't get the Power Schemes to come up
without the grayed-out display so that I can create a new profile.
Checked the ACPI driver (using Device Manager), and it checked out OK.
Anyone know what might have happened here, and what the fix is?
