Hi;

Does anyone know if there is, perchance, a simple way of setting up XP Pro
so that, if I walk out of my office at 2.30 p.m., leaving the PC on, I can
have it set up to shut itself down at, say 7.30 p.m.?

Thanks, in advance, for any ideas;

Hi

From a command prompt type "shutdown /?" - without the quotes.
