I recently added our network PCs to a Windows domain.

Once I did that, the power management stopped working correctly. I
have the monitors set to power off after 4 hours, but they actually
power off after about 20 or 30 minutes.

The monitors are not set with any power saver features that I can
see, but even so, all that changed was adding the computers to the
domain.

After adding them to the new domain, I logged in as the user with
Administrator privileges and set the screen saver to Marquee with a
20 minute screen saver timeout and a 4 hour power off for the monitor.

Power settings are per user, not per workstation....and for some reason,
limited user accounts can't change the settings.
