Thinkpads Forum

Hi Folks,

Imagine a thinkpad with battery taken out. If you yank the power supply
off, it will shut off, right?

Now, I would like the thinkpad to automatically boot when I plug in the power. Normally, one needs to hit the power-on button after the power
is supplied.

Does anyone know a way of automatically booting thinkpad on power-on.

I checked BIOS settings and power options/managerment within windows OS without any promising leads.

I am using a T41p with windows xp pro sp1.

Thanks in advance.

Its funny that you mention this....while I don't have your answer, I have been searching for way to make my M300 STOP doing that.
