Starting computer with power strip
So our office just upgraded computers. We went from pentiumD machines running XP, all the way to solid state HD, Core i5's and windows 7. What a change! lol
I am helping to set each station up before we set the pc's at each station. On our old machines we could set them to boot up when we turned on the power strips that they were connected to. We achieved this feature through the BIOS settings. On the new machines I cannot seem to find anything in the new UEFI BIOS settings that would allow me to do this. I see where you can do the LAN boot, time boot, and after power outage boot. I thought the power outage boot would do the trick, but it did not work.
The nightly procedure is that everyone shutsdown there PC's and then turns the power off at the power strip for the night. Then in the morning we turn on the power strip and the PC's start to boot.
If anyone could help me find the feature I am looking for that would be great, or just a simple "That feature no longer exists" would be great too. That way I so not waste any more time looking for something that just isn't there.
Thanks.
