1) did your laptop come with some power management utilities? Those might override your XP power options.

2) Did you try setting up a custom profile and changing the standby setting under that?
If the normal profile is hosed, maybe setting a new profile will adjust that.


Good Luck!

Can you temporarily upgrade the limited user to have admin rights, make the change and the reset it to limited? It may take a few log off/ons to do it.
