How schedule a PC Power on ?

[jtsnow]

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

Some PC bios have that capability.

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

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