Hi,

I'd simply like to start my PC at a specific time each morning.  As I researched how, I kept finding simple examples using the BIOS power on option.  Sadly, that is apparently under advanced options which I do not have access to.

 

Is there no other way for me to turn my PC on at x am?  And yes, I have restarted the PC using task scheduler, but that is not the same thing as a cold start after the PC has been off for hours.

 

TIA, Randy
