When I change the Power Saving settings in Win98 and then save and reboot, changes are not saved.

Not knowing what version of Win98 you are using. This fix may help. Be very careful editing the registry. This solution is to resolve an issue I had when I upgraded from win98 to win98 2nd edition.

To work around this issue, use Registry Editor to remove all but the default subkeys 0, 1, and 3 in the following registry key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Powercfg\PowerPolicies

I just figured it out.
In the users System Configuration Utility (in Win98 ver2). There were 2 LOADPOWERPROFILE settings in the Startup, one was checked and the other one wasn't. I unchecked the one that was checked and rebooted. It saved the setting after reboot.
Thanks for your time.
