Hello,
I asked this question already once, and got no answer. Maybe I'm more lucky this time.
The WINXP Task Scheduler is able to wake up my PC from S4 (Hybernation mode). But at the time the Wake up event occurs the system state is the same then in S5 (Soft off). The only difference between S4 and S5 is the boot of the OS after switching on the PC.
So my question is: Why is it no possible to WakeUp the PC from S5 ?
Or the better one: Why (how) is it possible to wake the system from S4 ?
I'm just checking the RTC datasheets, even I think the RTC is not used for this feature. If it would the RTC would have to has two possibilities for programming the wake up, as the BIOS is already using this feature, and if the Taskscheduler would use the same this two things would have problems!
Can sombody tell me wich RTC devices are used normally on a Mobo, and direct me to a datasheet for this RTCs?
thanks
Hermann
