[slim] Setting up LMS Win 8 netbook server to switch on automatically ?

Hi I have always turned my LMS laptop manually, but it has occurred to me that maybe I can utilise sleep/wakeup function of Windows to make things a bit more sophisticated than this. At the moment I have set up Windows power options (and LMS server) to not enter sleep mode to avoid interruption
