Turn PC on using IR remote

[Duke_]

Hi All,

I'm looking for something to allow me to turn my PC on from a cold start (no hibernate or S3) using an IR remote. I assume it has to be connected to the mobo power switch. If anyone knows any company that makes these I'd be grateful if you could point me in their direction. I've looked at Simerec but would like to know if there's anything mass produced and available in the UK.

Sorry if this has been asked before but I couldn't find the answer trawling previous threads.

Thanks

This will do the job. I have one.... it comes with software for organising and playing your media files...... but I don't really use that, I just use it for the power on by remote (and use a wireless kb+mouse to control everything).

It plugs into the 24pin plug on the mobo, and then you plug the psu connector into it.

Spot on - thanks very much.
