If you're asking how to force XP to reboot every day @ 8:00 PM, just
schedule the following command:

shutdown -f -r

The above says "restart the PC and force any open applications CLOSED if
necessary".

You can find many other options as well (e.g., -m \\computername can be used
to shutdown/restart remote PCs) by simply requesting help:

shutdown /?

Use the Task Scheduler: Control Panel->Scheduled Tasks->Add Scheduled Task

For the program, click Browse, and select C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe, then select Day. Enter a username and password. Select
"Open advanced properties.", then click Finish.

Now using the advanced properties, add -r to the command:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\shutdown.exe -r -t 0

If you don't want it to reboot immediately (provide time to cancel the reboot), then change -t 0 (eg -t 30 for 30 second countdown).

Click the Schedule tab and set the interval, then click OK.

Well the shutdown command will do the work but why do these things when you can do this by GUI and with many other useful options. Download WinOFF :

Then just set it to 20.00/Every Day in the Add Scheduled Task wizard. Don't forget to set the -r parameter in the advanced
properties.
