If you can use Group Policy Preferences and the client side extensions
installed on XP computers, there are settings for XP clients included.

Subject: Power Profile / PC Shutdown
Hey Guys;
We've been task to find out how to create a new "green" power profile
on our PC's / laptops and also have them shutdown at a specified time at
night. Poking around Google I see that XP system's wont accept an AD
power policy by default but the powercfg.exe can be used to push one as
noted here

Has anyone used this or have any suggestions (or nightmare scenarios) on
other tools that can be used, free or cheap of course :-)
Cheers!
