Radioactive Frog 0 Posted September 30, 2003 If the power goes off in the house i have to clamber into the loft to turn on the server again! is there a way it will automatically come back on when the power does? or is there a way i can turn it on remotely? thanks RF Share this post Link to post
Sampson 0 Posted September 30, 2003 Why don't you buy a UPS so that the server doesn't go down at all? Share this post Link to post
Silver-Dagger 0 Posted September 30, 2003 Check your BIOS. Some of the newer ATX motherboards have a setting to power the machine backon after a power outage. Share this post Link to post
Tomay 0 Posted September 30, 2003 Yes most of my mobos have this feature. "power state after power fail" Share this post Link to post
felix 0 Posted October 1, 2003 Get one of "Homer's key pressing dipping birds" and put it next to the server. You have to hold an ATX power button for 5 secs to turn it off but just tap it to turn it on. Leave the bird tapping and if the power goes off it will turn your server on.

jmmijo 1 Posted October 4, 2003 A UPS can also be a hardware saver, especially when a brown-out occurs Share this post Link to post
