1.	Solve : need help with startup?
Answer» can somebody please explain how i can schedule my computer to load up at certain times each day, i want it to load up near midnigth and run a virus scan, so that way it DOESNT start scanning when im in the middle of something thankyouI dont think this is possible, because.... The computer doesnt know what time it is when it is not turned on.... Therefore it wont know when to turn on.my pc used to do it before ..when it was not SUPPOSED to mind..but it still did itAre you sure the PC wasnt in Sleep Mode?Can't you just get it to scan when you go to bed? That's what I do. Kaspersky has an option to turn the computer off when it is done scanning. Quote The computer doesnt know what time it is when it is not turned on. This is not true. That's why you have CMOS battery. As for TURNING computer on automatically, some BIOSes will allow it. It's called "WAKE On RTC (Real Time Clock)" Quote As for turning computer on automatically, some BIOSes will allow it. It's called "Wake On RTC (Real Time Clock)" how do i no if my computer can do this?Your computer BRAND, and model, please.The Owners Manual should tell you as well... Quote from: Broni on August 16, 2008, 11:21:53 AM Your computer brand, and model, please. im not really sure...its a custom one my auntie had made -_-You need to enter BIOS, and poke around.
