Personally I would not recommend this approach for a couple of reasons:<br><ul><li>You&#39;ll have a script running that does nothing but still consumes resources for those 90 minutes</li><li>Most anti-viruses would make noise about such a script. In fact if I recall correctly there was a virus that would invoke a shut down without any warning</li>
<li>The task scheduler was designed for precisely this sort of thing.</li><li>The task scheduler logs its operations so it is easier to debug, test, check if it fired, etc<br></li></ul>If I were you i would create a schedule for every 90 minutes and then provide the command shutdown the pc immediately as the task (provide 0 as the timeout)<br>

Did you wait for 90 minutes?, Also check to see that wscript.exe is on your task manager&#39;s process list. I&#39;m not sure if the Sleep method has a maximum value that it can take, which could be lower than 5400000 (90 minutes in millisec). <br>
