    First, check the power settings in Control Panel -> Power management.

    If this doesn't work, check with the registry editor (regedit.exe) the
key name

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

    and see if it contains the key 'LoadPowerProfile' with the value

"Rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,LoadCurrentPwrScheme"

    I hope this helps.
