OOPS! Task Scheduler NOT Task Manager!

Use Taskmanager to start the task at boot time. Windows XP provides a
utility called "shutdown.exe". At the command prompt enter shutdown /?
for usage and parameters.

In windows xp, how can i have the computer shutdown after 10 minutes
or such of inactivity. The computer will most likely be at the 'log
in' screen...so there is not a user logged in. The Windows power
options are per-user...not per machine as far as I can see. My BIOS
does not support auto-shutdown or standby either, mainly because its a
desktop computer and not a laptop. Any suggestions on how to make my
computer shutdown, anytime after 10 minutes of no usage when on the
logon screen? I have tried third party shutdown softwares, but they
all load after you have logged in.
