Sorry for the delayed reply. Thanks very much for your help. I didn't see your reply earlier, but I managed to get the pc by using this command:- psshutdown \\media-computer -d -m "COMPUTER GOING TO SLEEP IN 20 SECONDS"

Hi again. Thank you very much for the helpful post topgundcp. I have successfully managed to shutdown the computer. I also removed the EVERYONE group for security issues as it's not needed because I only want an Administrator to have the rights to send any shutdown commands. However, I have...

Cheers buddy. Will let you know how I get on. Thanks again

Topgundcp - I'll give it a try and let you know. By the way, you've given me a command to shutdown, but what would the commands be for SLEEP and RESTART? Caperjack - I already run tightvnc which does better than teamviewer, but all I want to do is to double-click on an icon and something like...

Thanks caperjack. Unfortunately I've already seen that app and I believe it only does WOL and not any of the other commands such as sleep or restart :(

Hi guys, I have a small Home network setup and I want a simple way of sending a command from my pc upstairs to a media pc downstairs which can shutdown/sleep/restart it remotely. FYI, both pc's have windows 8 pro 64bit and the media pc is is mostly in sleep-mode. Can you recommend any app or...

Thank you for the link TairikuOkami. Just to clarify, does this disable the buttons or the features or can it do both? Because I simply want to remove the options from the buttons,.

Bumpty Bump!

Damn! Thats bad news. It could be hardware or software causing the issue. Oh well I'll keep trying. Thanks again

Really? And noone has found a solution? Not even microsoft? Surely thats a serious bug, considering that sleep mode is needed to save energy?

Thanks caperjack, I did see that, but I'm not on Windows 8.1...I'm on windows 8, thats why I posted my question.

BUMP!

Hi everyone, I have Windows 8 Pro (64-bit). It's currently setup to run as a media server for my home, but I'm getting really annoyed as I keep accidently shutting it down or restarting. The only thing I want it to be able to do is to goto sleep. I don't want to disable buttons just for...
