I have attempted to set up Task in the Schedule Task Folder, which doesn't
seem to be a problem it itself. I have all the tasks I want completely set
up and have checked the properties tab and made sure "wake up computer" is
checked as I usually leave the computer in "hibernate". When I turn on the
computer I keep getting a message that says "some tasks didn't execute at
scheduled times because the Task Scheduler Service wasn't running". Well I
can't seem to find this Task Scheduling Service. I just know how to use the
Task Schedule Folder. How does you find the Scheduling Service and how do
you set it up? I've tried everything else I can think of. I'm quite certain
I have each tasked set up properly, but the log always says "missed". Thanks
for any help you can give me.

There is nothing wrong with your Task Scheduler. The message
simply tells you that certain tasks did not run at the set time
because Windows was asleep. It's like your diary telling you that
you missed an appointment at 10am because you were still asleep!
 
How do you find the Scheduling Service

Open Services...
Start | Run | Type: services.msc | Click OK |
Scroll down to and double click: Task Scheduler |
Make sure that Start type is set to Automatic.
If Task Scheduler is not running, click the Start button.
Click OK and close Services.
