Comment: I have configured a scheduled task to turn the computer on at 455 am on saturdays. i checked the box for it to wake the computer to run this task, but the computer does not resume from hibernation to run the task. How do I fix this issue?

Reply: (edit) 1. Go to Start | All Programs | Accessories | System Tools | Scheduled Tasks.
2. Launch the Scheduled Task Wizard by double-clicking Add Scheduled Task.
3. Click Next and select the program that you want to start when your system wakes up. Click Next.
4. In the following three screens, select the Daily option, the time that you want your system to wake up, and then type a username and password with Administrative privileges.
5. On the last page, select the Open Advanced Properties check box and click Finish.
6. When you see the Properties dialog box for the scheduled task, choose the Setting tab and select the Wake The Computer To Run This Task check box.
7. Click OK.
