However, the computer kept starting up at the designated time! I have bought a new computer and in preparing to sell the old one I re-formatted the hard drive and re-installed Windows XP.
Guess what? The computer still boots up at 5.30pm each day!
Any thoughts on how to stop this happening?
Thanks.
