View Full Version : wake up alarm?
Anyone know of a good piece of software to help wake me up in the morning?

Your BIOS, auto-logon in XP, and winamp set to load+play at startup.
Also known as an alarm clock.
Sure if the BIOS allows that...

It probably does. "Wake by RTC" is what you're looking for in most BIOS.

You could always use the task facility in your email program and set the reminder to play your own (loud) wav file, preferably something you don't like :)

best software ever for alarm: http://www.ornj.net/citrus/
It is free and kicks ass. I have not found anything better. I have been using Citrus for over a year... highly recommended.
cheers :D

Yeah, citrus clock is pretty good. Although, sometimes I had trouble getting it to go off on time.

Use the scheduled task program built into windows. It'll start whatever you what whenever you want it. I use that when I'm around the computer and my phone otherwise.
