Look at the power management API's.
I was looking at them a week ago but did not find what i
wanted, wake up the a hard drive across a LAN.
Wake on Lan if I remember was included.

Wake on LAN settings
Does anyone know how to check if a PC is capable of "Wake on LAN"? "Wake on LAN" is when your PC can be powered off and a server sends out a special network broadcast to "wake up" the PCs and power them back on.
I know some PCs have this setting in the BIOS setup, but I need to find a way to check a PC using a program and I have looked in the WMI sections (including the BIOS sections) and unless I am missing it, I don't see that as an option anywhere.
Is there anything like a device driver that might get loaded, or a registry setting, or anyplace in windows I can check? (is Windows even aware of this feature since it happens when windows is not around)
If I can figure out how to check it manually from Windows on my PC, I can setup a program to test the remaining 68000+ PCs. (I don't really want to go in to BIOS setup that many times)
Even guesses will help at this point.Tags: None
