Power Options Get Reset - Happy Dud

16-Jan-08 03:33:01
I've been noticing that my power options are reset after every automatic
windows update.  I have a custom power power saving scheme setup in the power
options control panel.  The hard disk is set to spin down after 25 minutes,
and the system is to go into standby after 30 minutes.

After Windows Update is run, these settings are reset to 'Never' and
'Never'.  This issue is occurring on 2 machines I have setup.  Both are
Windows XP Pro SP2.
