Stabbing in the dark a bit on this one, but Linux power management has two
aspects.

1. kernel configuration, which will require a
reconfiguration/recompilation of the kernel - as a newbie, not something
to be undertaken lightly.

2. as a boot time script in /etc/rc.d/init.d/apmd

I could be way off track, but my first instinct would be to run:
        /etc/rc.d/init.d/apmd stop
and see what effect that had.  If you run:
        ntsysv
then you get a semi-graphical interface that will allow you to
enable/disable those daemons that get started at boot time, one of which
is apmd.
