Wake up on time...

Is there anyway to boot my machine or have it come out of sleep mode at a certain time of day? (i.e. 6:30AM my computer comes on) I don't know if computers do that or not. I know there is wake-up on lan option, but that requires something to wake it up or something? Could I have a website contact my computer and say, "Time to wake up..?"

I could make money doing that website 😉
 
Set your system BIOS to turn the computer on a X time everyday. Or isn't there something you can set in the Windows Scheduled Tasks if it is in a sleep/standby mode?
 
Ok, checked my BIOS and it has an option called wake up on RTC [words here]

I enabled it and then I saw these options for the day... 1-31 and Everyday. I chose everyday

then set the hour, minute, and second to 6, 30, 0
Hopefully it works tomorrow! I am using the right option?

Or you could just set it for two minutes from now and avoid the overbearing suspense.
