Method for turning on and turning off computer automatically based on UEFI BIOS

Abstract

The invention provides a method for turning on and turning off a computer automatically based on UEFI BIOS. The method comprises the steps that (A) a system bottom-layer calling service is set; and (B) configuration information of an application program is set under an operation system. According to the invention, the system bottom-layer calling service is set by the UEFI BIOS, so that customized turning-on time can be directly set under the operation system, and thus customized turning-on can be achieved. Meanwhile, automatic turning-off can be achieved under the operation system through calling of the application program in a drive library and setting of customized turning-off configuration information of the application program. In addition, the turning-on and turning-off of the computer can be controlled better in a full-automatic and intelligent manner; power source consumption of companies or families can be reduced; and hardware consumption of the computer can be reduced, so that the computer can be protected.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of computer control, and more specifically, relates to a method for automatically turning on and off a computer based on UEFI BIOS. Background technique [0002] At present, the switch control of most home or office computer equipment is to use a manual switch. When the user needs it, the computer is turned on, and when the user does not need it, the computer is turned off. For example, for employees who work in the company, the usual switch operation is, Employees turn on their computers when they come to work in the office, and manually turn them off when they leave. However, the problem with this current method of controlling the power on and off is that due to the urgent need to use the computer, it will be turned on when it is turned on, but it may be forgotten to be turned off when it is turned off, especially the office computer of a temporary station, which is more common. It was because the...

However, the problem with this current method of controlling the power on and off is that due to the urgent need to use the computer, it will be turned on when it is turned on, but it may be forgotten to be turned off when it is turned off, especially the office computer of a temporary station, which is more common. It was because the computer was not turned off because I went out and did not return to the company.

In the company, if you forget to turn off the computer, on the one hand, it will increase the company's expenses, cause a waste of power energy, and on the other hand, it will also cause a loss to the machine itself.

[0003] Although the CMOS setting method of the BIOS of the main board can be set to start in a limited time, as described in CN200910030877 as the patent number, it does not support shutdown under the operating system; boot function
