Well Im wondering if there is anything that will shutdown your computer at a given time
For an example
Everyday i want my computer to turn off at 11:30pm
is there something in windows xp or a program (easy to use, and doesnt hog memory) that does it?
Its because my dad usually forgets to turn off his computer..

What pisses me off the most are those who charges a premium when XP itself already has the feature built in.

-d [u][p]:XX:YY The reason code for the shutdown
u is the user code
p is a planned shutdown code

those are the switches for the shutdown command. you can from the control panel set up a scheduled task to execute the shutdown command at a certain time of day. |
