    Hi to everyone, i have a gateway fx7805u, and i search in the bios for a auto power on setting, like i have seen in another bios, but in this one i didnt found nothing similar, so i was wondering if someone knows about a program, or a configuration, to make the computer go on by itself. like a kind of alarm clock.
    thank to all

    No, but you can get it via USB or buy the card and put it in.

    Most notebook BIOS's don't support this type of function.
