the gpo is not applied as i understand it is a user setting rather than a 
computer setting. Now if I leave my test pc's not logged in it does not work - 
it does not modify the power setting to what I want. Once I log in as a user in 
the right group where the gpo has been applied, it works.

Huh?? What do you  mean it doesn't work when nobody's logged in? AFAICT it
does. It does here as far as I can tell.
