Power On Computer on Specified Time ?

Post by t0ny » Thu Oct 21, 2004 8:52 am

Hi,

Is it possible to create a macro that turn the computer (Windows XP) at specified time, autologin, and do some jobs, then turn the computer off ?

Thanks,

Guess yes. Maybe with a mixture of diff. apps.

Remote ? WAOL (Wake up On Lan, check your MoBo) or an NT service --- > AutoLogin (registry setting or TweakUI) ---> run a service or MSched from startup ---> use MSched's ShutDown> command.

If there are no frontend tasks to do you don't need to login at all. Just run the whole script as a service.
