You didn't specifically say that you're having problem with the
remote power-on, but just in case: In addition to what Jim said
about enabling a schedule in the BIOS for automated wake-up...if
you're using a magic packet-based remote wake-up, then you may need
to enable that in the BIOS as well. Also, in Windows, you may need
to enable it in the Device Manager usually under the network card's
properties in the Advanced tab.<br>
<br>
I agree. The staff definitely like it when the computers auto-start
and auto-shut down. I certainly hear about it if it DOESN'T work!

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">I hope there
are some techs that are familiar with the Poweroff software.
I was using it on a Windows XP computer to control several
computers in the library. Staff could run a poweron batch
file and several computers would boot up. At closing they
could run the shutdown batch file to power the computers off.
The reference staff loved it.<br>
<br>
I replaced the XP computer with a new Windows 7 64Bit
computer, and now I can't get the Poweroff software to work.<br>
<br>
Does anyone know what I could try to get this working on the
Windows 7 computer? Does anyone have suggestions for
something similar that would work in a Windows 7 environment?<br>
