Open Notepad and type the following lines:

@echo off
rem This is to shutdown the computer
rem
shutdown -s -t 30 -c "This computer will now Shut Down" -f
end

----------
@echo off = so it doesn't display the commands on the screen while running it. Only what -c "your message here" says
-s = shutdown, -t 30 = to shut it down in 30 seconds (time in seconds only), -c "your message here" what displays on the screen when you run this" and -f = to force close all open programs running
----------
Then save it as "shutdownpc.bat"
Make sure you type the .bat at the end of the file name or it will not work.
Now that you created the batch file you can go to task manager and schedule it to run at the time you want the PC to shutdown or just double click on it when you want to shutdown the PC.

I think I know what you're looking for, and it's not in Windows. I've been using a really cool FREE program that lets me choose to standby, hibernate, shutdown, or restart. AND it gives a choice to have this happen using a countdown timer or a set clocktime. It's called DH Shutdown. You can get it at : http://www.drivercleaner.net/index.php?site=tools
Look down at the bottom of th page for the download links.
Cheers!
