i planed a task as a scheduled task and i configurated it to start the pc automaticaly but this option did not work.
does it depend on the bios configuration? i looked at the configuration but i didn't find any possibility wheather to start the pc at a special time nor any other possibility to let the operating system start the pc. i already made a bios update.

Does anybody know why it does not work or how i can bring the pc to startup at a defined time?
 
Hi,

You can't use Task Scheduler to start the system, as the system must be
running for a scheduled task to initiate. To auto-start a machine, it must
be supported by the system BIOS. Check your motherboard manual.
