Hi guys.
I'm trying to set my PC to turn on everyday at a fixed time using the RTC option in the BIOS. My motherboard is the Asus P8P67 Pro Rev B3, and there's nothing helpful in the manual.
I enable 'Power on by RTC', then set Days to 0 because it says 0 = Everyday. I then set the alarm's hours, minutes, and seconds values in 24 hour format. The BIOS time is correct, and is on a 24 hour clock.
Despite doing this many times now, it's simply not working. When I check to see if the settings have saved correctly after it's failed to turn on, the value in the Days field has been changed to 15 (not 0), but the time is still how I set it. I've tried setting the Day value as 1 etc., and it's not having any effect.
One suggestion I saw on another forum was replacing the CMOS battery; is there any reason that this would help? Is there anything else I can try to get it to work?
Cheers,
Remmy.
