Does anyone know how I can disable the monitor powersave (also refurred to as: monitor turn off) in a registry. Or maybe not disable it but just set it to never.

Thank you.

I just want it so the monitor will never turn off (and it will set this automatically when I do an unattended install).

Found it. This regisitry will set you Power Scheme settings to 'Presentation' which that it will set the system to 'never' turn off monitor, 'never' go into stand by and 'never' turn off hard disks. If you use this registry key, you can change the previous settings by right click the desktop and go into properties/Screen Saver/Power.

You want to disable the PowerSaver™ feature?
You tree-killer!
