When a task is setup in the scheduler, there is option to wake the computer. What is the state that the computer wakes from? Is it hibernate?

Except for WOL packets sent to Ethernet card, or wake-on-ring capability of modem.

You awake from sleep mode.

There was something posted on TR that said it could wake a computer that was put into hibernate.

How to put the computer to sleep? Under power options, sleep is selected, but when "%windir%\system32\rundll32.exe PowrProf.dll, SetSuspendState" is executed, the computer doesnot sleep and rather hibernates.

I have since found out that the run line is indeed the same for both states. Which one is activated is dependent on how the system is setup.

Now I am thinking of what kind of state the computer can be awakened from.
