On a related note, if there are smart UPS units on the same electric circuit, might you have a log of them draining power/being offline at that time?

Is the workstation on a UPS, or can you plug in a device like an electric clock (or VCR ) that would blink 12:00 to indicate a power failure on the circuit ?

From: Bambi J Saastad [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, April 19, 2010 12:20 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Dell system reboots every other Monday at 6am I have a newer Dell Optiplex 760 Windows XP SP3, patches up to date. McAfee Enterprise Every other Monday for about the last 6 weeks, it reboots at approx 6am I've run Malawarebytes, and virusscan, and found nothing. I have 8 others just like it running the same software on the same equipment, and they have no issues. I've found nothing. Nothing obvious in the event logs. Has anyone else had something similar happen? Or any suggestions as to what may be causing it?
