Is there an equivalent to the Task Scheduler in WIN95 for NT? I am aware of the AT command but was looking for a GUI based utility. I am running NT 4.0 Service pack 5.

Don't waste your time with 3rd party software.
Install Internet explorer 5.o or above and this will automatically install "task manager" (double click on my computer win98 / win95 /NT or in control panel on Windows 2000)
It is wizard driven and pretty easy to schedule anything you want -- except for MS default backup in NT --- this can not be automated, you would need to buy a third party backup software for this.
