I worry that this would be overriding the setting in the BIOS. On the Intel platforms (at least on the mobile workstations) we can set the default power setting in the BIOS. I don't see this on the T14 AMD G1 - and haven't had a chance to check other platforms so its less of a concern there. As a compromise I'd want to force the profile to balanced on the PSC modes only. Ideally, if this is a FW bug we should get it fixed in FW. I know our FW team can be a bit slow, but I'd rather hold off a few more days until I have a better idea where the issue is. I don't really understand why the person with the original issue is seeing the behaviour that they are. Mark
