GA-H61M-S1: Resume by Alarm doesn't work, help pls!
Hambert:
Hello!! I'm Humberto, 22, engineering student. Sorry about the quick presentation, I hope you can help me with this problem, it's driving me CRAZY and I need it working for my Mother's business.
We have recently updated the PC system at my mother's laboratory. The old PC had a Pentium 4 Gigabyte motherboard, and it was set to power on automatically every day at 7:25AM, so it can start recording the security cameras on its own.
The new system has te "Resume by Alarm" feature in BIOS settings. I've set it to 7:25 as usual but after turning off the system and waiting to the set hour NOTHING happens. Not even trying it in the next 5 minutes, or waiting a day to see if the 7:25 setting worked.
The motherboard model is: GA-H61M-S1 rev. 3.0
I'll attach 2 photos with the current settings and system info.
PLEASE, I need your help!! I would be very, very grateful!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH inadvance!!

Please provide more information about your PSU. Brand, model. Are you running on a UPS.
Wake Up On Day 0? What other settings do you have there,,, 0-31... anything else? Zero might be everyday... I don't know for sure. Please cycle through. Take a look.
All of your hardware (especially the power supply) must support this standard. The BIOS can sent a signal to the PSU to start, but if its not listening, is shut off or does not support this standard the system won't start.

Hi! First of all, thank you SO MUCH for the answer! Here you go:
* About the PSU; My system was preassembled by a manufacturer and has warranty labels all around the lids, so I can't open it and see what's inside. I'll contact them via email and see if I could get some answers. It's a "Low-Profile" type case (similar to Acer's Aspire-X models).
* Yes, I'm running the system behind a battery, always-ON UPS.
* The "Wake Up on Day" option has a range from 0 to 31. According to the BIOS help text, selecting "0" will set the system to wake up every day (that's what I need). I just set it to 23 to see if it works out of the 0 setting (tomorrow).
shadowsports:
You've confirmed 0 is everyday, so your BIOS settings are correct. The system should wake everyday at 0725am.
The board should remain powered even when the PC is turned off as long as the UPS is on. From our perspective, your configuration is correct. You need to contact the manufacturer. Tell them what you've done and how you've tested. It might be the PSU they are using.
