Hi all,

I've seen this request posted a few times but never with any
responses. Appreciate any help.

I have no problems scheduling my backup task to wake the computer and
run at 03:00, but Vista sends the machine back to sleep again around
60 seconds later.

How do I persuade Vista to stay awake until the scheduled tasks
completes?

Thanks,
Skot
