Is it spam to continually respond to yourself? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Anywho... I'm still having this problem, and it's ruining a completely good Friday night because I can't stop thinking about it. :angry1:

Even if I boot up in safe mode, it's still the same deal. Under the admin profile all of the default schemes are there(Always On, Presentation, Desktop, Laptop, etc.), but under my profile, which has admin rights, it still only lists Desktop and Laptop, and I can save new schemes, but they disappear after closing the window.

In the knowledge database I did find reference to a problem prior to Service Pack 1, which I have, that happened if you tried to standby at 15 minutes or later due to task manager, and a similar problem if you tried if at 45 minutes or later even after service pack one, but I'm shooting for 30 minutes which should be fine. And HAS been fine until about a week or two.

As far as I can tell, the problem started after I'd switched schemes in order to have the moniter turn off while the computer stayed on all night downloading files. After I switched back to the Standby scheme it never worked correctly again. I have used Ad Aware and Spybot in addition to a complete virus scan using Norton's latest definitions, and I'm clean.

Someone please, [i]Stop The Insanity![i]
