Look in your system event log - you'll see events with the source being
"event log" and the event ID 6006 (shutdown) and 6009 (startup)

Hi

A)
Uptime.exe here should work fine for Windows XP as well:

B)
Or you can e.g. use PsInfo.exe for this:

Local computer: Psinfo.exe uptime
Remote computer: Psinfo.exe uptime \\somecomputer

PSInfo.exe is in the in the free PsTools suite found at
http://www.sysinternals.com/


C)

Or you can use VBScript/WMI for this:
