How do you schedule XP to turn on the PC at a certain time of day?
Ive looked all over, in Power Options and in Help and I have done it before
but cant find how to do it now. I need to do this for the backup server is
on which is really someones PC on the home LAN.

thank you

Scheduled Tasks. Set "wake computer" in Properties/Settings.

Some PC bios have that capability.

The other approach would be to do it by Wake-On-Lan on that PC.
