    in my bios (AMI BIOS) under the power settings theyre are the settings for the alarm to turn it on. To get into teh bios its usually the del key or could be f1 or f2.

    good luck.

    No. The only way to do that is to enable "wake on lan" in your bios settings.

    This topic really does not even concern me because my boxes stay on 24 hours a day at least. And if one of my boxes crashes from power failure or whatever, wake on lan will do the job if Im not here to turn it back on.

    Also you can shedule the wol packets to be sent at the time you want your box to power on.
