Auto reboot

Can anyone suggest a method or specific software that I can sue to
force a reboot at a sopecific time each day? The BIOS setup in my
Dell Dimension E310 does not offer that option.

TIA. --Alf

Re: Auto reboot

Use task scheduler with the shutdown /r command.

Rebooting your machine is a Windows function, not a BIOS
function. Use the Windows Task Scheduler to schedule this \
batch file at the desired time:
@echo off
shutdown -r -f -t 600 -c "This PC is shutting down in 10 minutes"
