How to have computer sleep at night (to save power) then wake in the morning.

Hi folks. I have about 3 computers in my house that currently run 24/7. I'm thinking this is probably not good for power saving so I'm trying to figure out a way to have those computers only on during certain hours. I'm looking for a way to have them sleep and wake on a schedule I set so they are available during the day but not at night when I'm sleeping. Help would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

Windows scheduler can do what you want. Here is a tutorial -- http://www.groovypost.com/howto/schedule-wake-sleep-windows-automatically/

Thanks. I did find that solution and tried it. The sleep worked but then it never woke up.
