Lightbulb Automatic PC power on and shut down

Hi all,

Anyone know of a program I can use to automatically turn on a PC and also shutdown automatically at any given time? I have seen programs to allow automatic shutdown but have yet to see any that allows automatic power on. I am looking for something that would work with XP or Server 2003. Thanks!!

Power on has to be done through the BIOS cause windows or any windows app., certainly can not do anything when the PC is off. There are what is called wake up events in your BIOS, perhaps U could make one of those work how you want it to...
