						Auto Stand by Computer?

				Introduction 
				
				    In standby 
				mode, Windows shuts off the monitor and keeps the hard drive from 
				spinning while the CPU is also placed on the lowest capacity. At 
				times, you may walk away from your desktop or notebook computer 
				and not be able to get back in a short period of time. Free 
				Auto Shutdown is an easy-to-use and powerful utility that 
				can set the computer to standby automatically, 
				without user intervention, to save power when you are away from 
				your computer. 
				
				Step 1. Choose the Task You Want to Execute 
				
				    Launch 
				Free Auto Shutdown and click the "Action" dropdown 
				menu to choose "Standby" from "Turn Off/Restart/Standby/Hibernate". 
				 
				  
				
				Step 2. Set the Task Execution Time 
				
				    Switch 
				to "Time Schedule" section to define the 
				schedule to auto standby your system. 
				 
				You can check "Relative Time" to specify 
				the relative time from now/after next restart/after every 
				restart to perform selected action. 
				 
				  
				 
				
				    If you 
				want to executive the task on the specified time every week, check
				"Every week on" and click "..." 
				to check Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday/Friday/Saturday/Sunday 
				and click the up or down arrow to define the exact time 
				according to your requirement. 
				 
				  
				 
				
				    It also 
				allows you to select the exact date and time every month for the 
				action. Check "On a specified date" and click the 
				calendar to select the date and then 
				set the exact time (Remember that the delay time should 
				be at least 2 minutes). Click "Apply" 
				and it runs in the background quietly. It will pop up a countdown 
				reminder one minute before the execution.
