Need a program

Anyone know of, or can make a program that simply just shuts down my computer?

I.E I want task schedueler to run it at 2:30 AM, and it'll shut my comp down.

If you know a way for windows to shut itself down at a certain time. Please let me know [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

Catsby recommends that you create a batch file and put it into task sheduler.

Catsby says that you need to put this in the batch file:

Code:
C:\WINDOWS\RUNDLL32.EXE user,exitwindows
exit

Code:
cd\
shutdown -s


Simply Run that rather complex batch file when you want the computer to shutdown using task scheduler. It will give you a warning of thirty seconds before turning off the pc, from which you can abort the shutdown by using the 'shutdown -a' command.
