Is there anyway to turn on a PC that is off from another PC? I was looking in WOL but it seems like that is only good for using like RIS.

Thanks

Hi!
 
There is a way you can do this. Go to and download the free wake on lan software they have. Now all you need is the MAC addresses of each of the machines that you wish to "Wake Up". You can find the mack addresses for the Network Cards by opening a Dos Session and typing IPCONFIG /ALL. The Mack address my be labeled as "Physical Address".
