GetPossibleValue switch in powercfg returns "Invalid Parameters" message
I want to determine a power policies parameter values (e.g. Increase Percent, Domain Accounting Policy, Increase Policy). I tried using the /getpossiblevalue switch in powercfg to obtain the power policy setting definition using the command
"powercfg /getpossiblevalue sub_processor procperf 4"
The following message is returned
"Invalid Parameters -- try "/?" for help"
Does the /getpossiblevalue switch only exist in Vista and Windows Server 2008? In Windows 7, is there another way to determine performance state settings for Increase/Decrease policy?

Doesn't seem that /getpossiblevalue exists in Windows 7 RC, but have you looked at /? and seen /getpossiblescheme, /devicequery and so forth?

ro927,Did you try "powercfg /q"? it displays possible values (minimum and maximum) for too many things to list (all by GUID).Also, using powercfg /? gives a pretty detailed listing.
