Power save doesnt turn off monitor any more & 22GB user

This is a discussion about Power save doesnt turn off monitor any more & 22GB user in the Windows Hardware category; Just like the topic says, regardless of the time set until the monitor turns off it never does for one user profile. The other user profiles seem to work ok. Something must be broken in the registry or something.

Just like the topic says, regardless of the time set until the monitor turns off it never does for one user profile. The other user profiles seem to work ok. Something must be broken in the registry or something. I was thinking of just copying one user profile to the one that is having problems but the problematic user profile is 22 gigs! How could this be? Anyone else had this problem? Thanks for any help.

I would just copy all personnal data from the profile and then delete the profile and recreate it. That should fix the problem. BTW after you delete the profile I would run a defrag just to be safe. Sounds like the users profile has some messed up clusters or they has been downloading alot of stuff they should not be....
