This is very easy to do with a batch file and Windows Task Scheduler. You can access it by the icon in your system tray. Simply add the commands you want to execute into a text file and save it with the extension BAT.

Next, add the batch file to the task list and set the time interval for the execution and away you go!

For more details on the task scheduler, see this page: http://www.aeverett.btinternet.co.uk/tips_windows98.htm
