New PC's New BIOS struggling to wake remote players ??
« on: May 07, 2013, 01:25:14 AM »
Hi Guys, I hope all you Media Signage users are well.
We have a whole bunch of New PC's to work with. The Newer Bios Versions do not all have the WAKE ON RTC Command on them. As we try to save on data (3G) in the Very late hours in the evenings. We use The player to shut the PC down and rely on the BIOS to switch it on or "Wake it from sleep". We do not have this setting now...I am talking to the pc manufacturer and other "IT Professionals" looking for and answer. I have been told you can wake the the PC with a Task scheduler. This is not working.
Do any of you our there have any comments that could help us?
Thanks
Advicast

Hi, Do these PC have Wake on power on, or power up auto start on power option on BIOS?
or maybe power on by set time?
