You canb't control power settings directly via Group Policy that I'm aware
of. Try posting in microsoft.public.windows.group_policy for more help,
however.

Hello Cyborg,

If you have at least one 2008 or vista machine, with RSAT installed, in your
domain you can use Group policy preferences to set power options or power
schemes via GPO. You have then just to install the Group Policy Preference
Client Side Extensions:

XP

2003:

They also exist for the other OS.

Best regards
