Four Magical Ways to Turn On Your Windows System

What method do you use to turn on your computer? If someone asks you, your answer would probably be: "Just press the power button on the computer case, right?" Of course, this is the simplest way. However, there are actually many other ways to turn on your computer. Below, we will introduce four methods for turning on your computer.

Method One: Set a Scheduled Startup

The motherboard has a real-time clock (Real Time Clock, RTC) that handles system timing. We can set the startup time through the RTC, much like setting an alarm clock. However, since this feature is rarely used, some motherboards (such as INTEL original motherboards) that offer this function may not actually start at the specified time, so users should test it before using it officially.

The specific steps are as follows:

1. After turning on the computer, press the "Del" key according to the prompt information on the screen to enter the BIOS settings of the motherboard. The settings related to scheduled startup are usually under the "Power Management Setup" option.

2. In the BIOS, there is an option called "RTC Alarm Poweron", which should be set to "Enabled" (enabled). Afterwards, users can specifically set the date, hour, minute, and second for the scheduled startup.
