Computer Alarm ?
I need an alarm for my computer so it will starting beeping or playing music at 4:30 in the morning and it will wake me up ?


Are there any programs that will do this and work for sure ?

yes the scheduler (in the control panel of all win 98 win 95 and win2000 systems ... don't know about winXP)..... schedule with it a .m3u file (winamp playfile) to open up (hopefully winamp is your default app for these type of files) at the required time and and bam ... winamp will auto start playing a m3u file if the m3u file is called directly and since the scheduler is opening the m3u file at the required time winamp starts playing at that time.... only down side is your computer has to remain on.... have fun

Just wonder, don't you have an alarm clock?

You can get one for around $10 at Wall Mart.

your welcome dude ..... it's the best way to save 10 bucks on an alarm ...

I also have my computer to auto reboot after a power outage so that it will at least hopefully come back online before needing to wake me up .. I need to get a UPS.... ohhh well .... I wake up to that TCC radio thingy .....
