Hi, I am using IBM X60. Currently i have this problem. I can't add any scheme to power options. Unable my power options, there is only 1 scheme: Timers off(Presentation). Whenever i save a new scheme, when i close the PO window then reopen, the scheme will disappear. I had tried powercfg /restoredefaultpolicies but i am still unable to save new scheme.
Please assist.

Thanks ya.

ACPI is the modern Power Management features of most PCs which allow the PC to save power and is linked to the Power Options. A BIOS update can fix some of these problems, otherwise you will have to use the older APM features.

What do u mean by ACPI compliant?
Yes i do have Administrator priviledges on my laptop? Or is there anything in the registy that i can play with to allow adding scheme; say GlobalPowerPolicy or PowerPolicy
Thanks ya
