How to set defaults for WinXP Scheduled Tasks?

Hello,
I have a TV card, which came with a scheduling package to set it up to
record TV shows at a scheduled date and time. It works ok.

However, if there is a risk my computer will "go to sleep" (hibernated or in
stand by), or if I am going to log off Windows XP, then I need to program it
in a "two step operation":

1) define the schedule using the third party (WinTV) application
2) set the "logon as" and "wake computer" options for the task using Control
Panel "Scheduled Tasks"

I only remember this half the time, and I cannot teach my family to remember
either, so we miss a lot of good TV...

Hence my question to you guys:
Can I set the "logon as" and "wake computer" options to default values,
which willl then be applied to all scheduled tasks?

Regards,
Lars

Start/Control Panel/Power Options
Under Settings for Home/etc..., set Monitor to 1 hour, the rest to NEVER.
Click Apply and OK
