Missing Power Management Tab

If you go to Device Manager, underneath "Computer", does it say something along the lines of "ACPI PC"?

If not, you've done something that I've managed to also mess up once -- early on in Setup, ACPI support is checked for, and, if somehow that goes wrong, no mention is made. Older versions of NT Setup, IIRC, had a screen where you would have been able to catch it.

I was in a hurry, and just re-re-loaded the OS, after trying a few times to load the proper drivers. Too bad, I never saw that problem surface again. Think it had something to do with warm-booting out of a BSOD (Me bad!).

Try loading the "ACPI PC" drivers for "Computer" (Do the "let me select the driver form a list" thing). Otherwise...

It does say ACPI Uniprocessor PC under Computer.

Is it an OEM computer, and does Device Manager recognize the keyboard as being from that manufacturer, or being from whatever manufacturer of the keyboard you are currently using?

No it's self-built. Device Manager does recognize my keyboard...using IntelliType on an MS Digital Media Pro keyboard.

The Power Management tab is also missing from my mouse too, a MS IntelliMouse.

do you have your motherboard chipset drivers loaded?

I used the USB hack in the threads there and it worked. The Power Management tab is back. Thanks.
