Remember : You needn’t any other software installed for this tip , and what we use is only a Schedule Task Wizard which will be originally installed with Windows XP .If you use the Microsoft Windows XP’s Hibernation feature on your laptop or desktop to put your system to sleep at the end of the day rather than turning it off, you may wanna schedule your system to “wake up” it in the morning. Using the Scheduled Task Wizard, your machine will be ready and waiting for you just as if you left it on all night.
Follow the steps below to make it :
1.     Go to Start | All Programs | Accessories | System Tools | Scheduled Tasks .
