A way to use scheduler to schedule standby or hibernate?

Post by De Rigueur »

I'm trying to use the scheduler in XP to make a computer go into standby mode at a specific time every day (rather than after so much inactive time). Is this possible?

I found some software that supposeed to do this, but I didn't really want to buy anything.

-d for standby, -h for hibernate IIRC.
