I was wondering if anyone knew why setting up a new Power Option isn't working for me. &nbsp;Here's what we are working with...<br />
<br />
We have Vista workstations with the balanced power plan selected. &nbsp;We want to be able to push out the High Performance option to all the workstation without having to go and visit every single pc. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
I have setup a Windows7 pc with RSAT installed. &nbsp;I go to GP management editor and tried to set it up on both the user and computer preferences. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
I tried to update\create\replace\dele<wbr />te and nothing works, I also tried to do a custom setting and that didn't work.<br />
<br />
Is there something I'm missing? &nbsp;I do a gpupdate /force and the power plan remains the same.<br />
<br />
Thanks

Power Plan using Windows 7 RSAT

Windows Vista is an operating system created by Microsoft as the successor to Windows XP. It was intended for PCs, workstations and laptops, and shares the same code base as its successor, Windows 7. New features included an updated graphical user interface (GUI) and visual style dubbed Aero, a new search component called Windows Search, redesigned networking, audio, print and display subsystems, and new multimedia tools. Vista aimed to increase the level of communication between machines on a home network, using peer-to-peer technology to simplify sharing files and media between computers and devices. Windows Vista included version 3.0 of the .NET Framework, allowing software developers to write applications without traditional Windows APIs.
