| I'm using Task scheduler to start up my programs and PC when I wake up (7:30) and I'm wondering if anybody has a script that turns the PC on, or can make one? |

| I doubt it's possible unless your definition of off is "sleeping". |

| Well actually you could, you could have it send a POST request to an IP address linked to another computer in your house before powering off which controls a robotic hand and when the time is struck the hand presses your power button. |

| Well, of course, I never turn my PC off. |

| If you never turn it off then I think it's likely there's some command prompt command that escapes from sleep. |

| I'm sure there is, but I have no idea what it is. |

| I remember reading about C++ modules that wake your computer from sleep. I use them with Python to do stupid things. |

Or you could make extensive modifications to the BIOS, and possibly recode Darwin/NT/Linux/BSD/Unix/FreeDOS/DrDOS/AppleDOS/Minix/Solaris/OpenBSD/NetBSD/FreeBSD/Mach/SunOS/Hurd/ReactOS
