Dear mr. Icetroll, Can't you use some wake on lan feature? Most NIC's support it nowadays... Then maybe you could write a windows service that does wathever you need it to and start it with "net servicename computername" in the console of another computer on the lan. I don't really get your questions - do you actually mean powering up the computer or waking it... If you're asking about powering it up, you could use an UPS. The back-UPS series has an USB interface through which you can turn it's outlets off, but I never actually tried it.
HTH, Chris. BTW, your language is kinda improving - keep working on it ;) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:lingo-l-admin@;mail4.fcgnetworks.net] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: vrijdag 8 november 2002 13:07 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: <lingo-l> Start the PC-machine when dead.. Lost gone mci-commands Well, the Mci is fairly gone -OK (me make lookout for open sources elsewhere..) And I figured as well the risks getting into the viruse-trap with the software solution, so I agree, the best solution would be to find a hardware device for starting up by the power-way.
