XP PRO - Automatic Reboot

[Newcamd]

Is there a way that an automatic reboot can be initiated at a certain time every day.
For instance, what I'm trying to achieve is the automatic shutdown and restart of one of my computers at 2.00am every morning.
Thanks

scheduled task no good ?

shutdown /r /f /t 0

I often use it with the /m \\machine_name to remote bounce machines.

if you have a username/password, edit registry I think something like autologon? (google it)
and schedule a reboot (as above)

There is some free software available to do that for you.


or you could use windows scheduler to run a reboot.exe command at the time you specify. There are a few version of reboot.exe software I'm sure youll find one using google.

Thanks guys, yes - scheduled task - christ I wish I would learn to think before I ask for help
But thank you all - scheduled Tasks does exactly what I need to do.
