Greetings listers,

I am in the process of trying to develop a strategy to remotely deploy hard
drive images to several hundred machines across a college campus.  In
testing, I have only been able to "wake-up" these PC's from ACPI levels S1
and S3, and I would like to be able to from S5 (power off).  I am unclear as
to whether this is even theoretically possible.  The hardware consists of
MSI MS-6330 motherboards (BIOS rev. 3.2) and SMC 9432TX network cards fitted
with LanWorks boot ROM's at version 4.20.  The WOL cable is in place between
card and motherboard.  Operating system is Windows XP Professional.  If
anyone out there has any experience with this type of scenario, or can offer
any insight into the intricacies of WOL and ACPI in general, I would welcome
their comments and suggestions.

Thanks in advance,

George
