hi, me again.


As I want my mini-itx to display the information at all times, with using
Embedded XP, what component do I need, to change the "stand by" settings,
especially the "monitor standby" , as now, the monitor goes on stand by
default of 20 minutes.

so would like to disable the standbys, and etc, but how, or through what
component?

thanks

Hi,

you probably could change it after FBA, on the live image.
Better way though is to set it in your configuration (Target Designer):
check your HAL component (something like "ACPI Uniprocessor PC" or
"Advanced Configuration and Power Interface"), you will find an option
in Power Management Settings where the power management policy can be
set to "Always On".

I have chosen the "target designer : component : Advanced Configuration and
Power Conifuration : to always on", but by default, on normal XP, when
"always on" is enabled, the monitor standby is ALWAYS 20 minutes, therefore I
will need to change the power stand by on the monitor on the live image, but
I can't access the "power management", as it won't open from the "display
properties ; under screensaver"
 
Add the Power Meter COntrol Panel component to your configuration, it
should bring the missing control panel applet (Power Options).

I found following Registry branch, which looks promising to your purpose:
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\PowerCfg

Never thought it would be called power meter,
This should all work now.
thanks, Romuald. :)
