Energy saver in system pref freezesSo, every time I open up the energy saver preferences, it looks like this:
Also, if i try to check/uncheck a box, it freezes the system pref app.
WTF, mate?"I attribute the little I know to my not having been ashamed to ask for information, and to my rule of conversing with all descriptions of men on those topics that form their own peculiar professions and pursuits."

Open the Finder and navigate to:

Would putting to the desktop the Preferences .plist help any .... ??
The only ones i could find are
com.apple.preference.desktopscreeneffect.plist
com.apple.PreferenceSync.plist
These dont look as if they have anything to do with System Preferences though ??
Just a thought
Cheers
EDIT
AHHHHH reread your post chscag lol that would be more appropriateDont forget to use the Reputation System if someone has helped you out !!!

So what then ?? Is it still happening ?? Do you have a Backup as well ?? Might be looking at a OS reinstall .....
EDIT : Maybe if you have a friend with OSX you could get the Energy Saver Preference Pane off them and trash the other one ?? Just a thought... PM me with your addy and ill send you one and see if that helps some ..Dont forget to use the Reputation System if someone has helped you out !!!
