    Every time I launch the VAIO Power Management.
    Control Panel -> Power Options -> VAIO Power Management (tab) -> VAIO Power Management Viewer (icon), a warning dialog window popped-up:
    "You cannot use VAIO Power Management Viewer when VAIO Power Management is disabled. Please open Power Options Properties from Control Panel and enable VAIO Power Management."

    I followed the suggestion.
    Control Panel -> Power Options -> VAIO Power Management (tab) -> Advanced (button) -> check 'Enable VAIO Power Management'. However, every time my laptop restarts, the 'Enable VAIO Power Management' option is again unchecked.

    Help?

    Basically, does anybody know how to enable the VAIO Power Management as the default power scheme?

    To change the power scheme options, you must have a computer administrator account.

    Hhmm... nobody has a similar problem before? :( Is this because of a clean installation (i.e. not using the Recovery DVD)?

    Thank you.
