HP has two patches, in english and japanese.
I suppose that HP will put more of these in other languages.

Is it true, or not? Have I to speak with Microsoft or with HP? Or have i to wait?

i have a Proliant ML350 (Windows Server 2003).. with a SmartUPS scheduled for shutdown/restart... it goes to sleep but don't wake-up in the morning!
..So..
i have the same problem ..if the solution is to apply the kb819760 hotfix.. i can't because.. i have an italian version of Windows Server and here there are only English and Japanese(!!) version.

How can i get it?

1. Click Start, click Run, and then type gpedit.msc.
2. Under Local Computer Policy, expand Computer Configuration, expand Administrative Templates, and then expand System.
3. Double-click Do not turn off system power after a Windows system shutdown has occurred.
4. Click the Setting tab, click Enabled, and then click OK.

After the manual patch described in the Knowledge Base article nr.819760, in the bios settings, i have changed a parameter that was blocking the wake-up in the morning. .. :-) now.. all works perfectly! (i have a Proliant ML350 and Windows Server 2003).
