No, your computer will not wake from off if it is disabled in whatever OS was running last. I'm not sure why that is, but from experience I can tell you it is true. In Windows you have to go into device properties for the NIC under the advance tab and enable magic packet WOL. In linux you use ethtool. Other OSes will have similar settings.
If this is so, is it the default in Windows XP Pro? because all workstations we have that have a WOL setting in the BIOS, successfully do WOL, without us changing anything in Windows from a fresh install.
