Power Questions

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.perform_maintain (More info?)

Hi - I've got two questions (okay, three!):

1. How can you prevent your computer from entering standby or hibernation
when it's running defrag (without having to manually turn off the power
settings)

2. What I would like to do is have my PC come on at 3am, run cleanmgr,
defrag and a backup routine and then switch off (although hibernate is okay).
I can, through the bios, turn the computer on (unfortunately every day) and
I think I've figured out the cleanmgr and can probably figure out defrag and
backup, but how do I force the computer to hibernate from within a batch file?

3. Is there an easy way to copy said backup onto a CD (ie can you xcopy to
a CD-R/RW/DVD?)

Lots of questions...
