Desktop Settings

[Steve]

All of the PC's on the domain are set to system stand-by
and hard drive shut down after 20 min. Is there an
option in active directory where I can set a policy to
turn off system standby, hibernation mode & password
protect to everyone. We are trying to do anti virus
updates but with this feature set it is shutting the PC's
down and the updates arent taking place.

Steve-

There aren't any built in power management GPs, but, if I'm not mistaken
these are just regular registry settings. In which case, you could easily
write your own ADM to set the options via GP.
