These instructions assume that you have access to a watch or other clock. Follow the instructions in the exact order given: 1) Determine what time you want the computer turned on or off. 2) Look at the clock. 3) When the clock indicates that the time is what you arrived at in step 1, turn the computer on or off. Hope this helps!!
