An easy way to track PC boots: add the following to autoexec.bat (or
whatever script that's executed once at boot time):
echo.|date>>boot.log
echo.|time>>boot.log
I have no idea for power-off.

The crude technique for determining power off is to have an app that
constantly opens a file, and writes in the date and time, replacing the
last entry that was written.
At boot, you look up that file, and record the time in the file (or the
date of the file) as the "shutdown" time, assuming that it runs
continuously until the system shuts down. This is how the PC Magazine
laptop run down tests used to calculate battery life.
This of course only works in Windows, and probably requires an
custom-written app, and will beat on your disk drive constantly (at
whatever time granularity you choose).

I've seen stuff that runs under Webservers that lists all the running
processes under Win95.
