I posted the message, repeated below, several days ago. Either it didn't
become visible to the group in general or no one had anything to say. If
you do know something helpful please respond. If you have a good pointer
that describes XP's power management scheme and its integration into the
user interface, I'd appreciate a pointer.
ORIGINAL MESSAGE:
"I occasionally have a visitor that I allow to use one of our computers.
I created Guest accounts for his use. I recently noticed that if he is
the last one to use one of the computers that it will not enter a
suspend state. I checked the power profile for the Guest user, set what
I wanted, clicked okay, and got something like a not authorized message.
Any way to fix power settings for the Guest account? I know I could ask
this user to log out then select suspend from the Welcome Screen. If I
could trust him to do that faithfully, I probably would have given him a
regular account."
