[blockie]

Somewhere in this forum I saw something about waking the computer for a certain length of time and then back to sleep. Where?

I'm not sure, you could ask that in that thread and Brink would let you know.

Sorry, but no. There isn't an option in the Power Plan Settings for this.

You should be able to do that with the second tutorial that Richc46 posted above.

waking up computer is a great idea
if you want to do it in a very SIMPLE way, use Crown Jetaudio, I used to use it to make my computer turn on and start playing music hopping I will wake up (A)
