Power schemes are gone!
I just realised that when i go to the power schemes on power options, there's nothing you can select. All the schemes are gone, you can't select anything nor you can adjust the timers(it saws nothing and if you click on them it does nothing!).

However my monitor enters the low power state it 10 minutes(specified from me from some other time).
Any help appreciated.

Did you install any new video card drivers or anything that might have fiddled with your power management settings? I had that problem with a set of video card drivers a while ago that, for some reason, disabled adjustment of the power management schemes.
Other questions:
1. I am assuming that you are logging in as an admin (under XP Pro), and
2. Have you enabled/disabled any power management features in the BIOS since you worked with these settings last?

Thanks for your help clutch.I did change the drivers of my video card a couple of weeks ago, but i only checked the power options today.So i guess it was there all this time but i never noticed it.It's not a big problem for me since it still has the settings i previously set, so it's cool.I have a Voodoo 3, and as you can imagine i have to rely on drivers made by coders, and not 3df-vidia!
Thanks for your time.
