Re: [H] another WEIRD Vista bug
Just a thought, but you might try looking in your system event log to see if there's anything weird going on there. I wonder if it could a BSOD crash that automatically reboots the computer (though I guess then at the next login you should get one of those windows-recovered- from-a-crash messages) Scott On Dec 3, 2008, at 10:07 PM, FORC5 wrote: This one new, Vista Ultimate on older HW but has run fine for quite some time.

Re: [H] another WEIRD Vista bug
Run media center? It has this optimize function that I think is disabled by default that resets the media center services at around that time and so in theory could reboot the box.

Not that I can't believe this would be Vista, but something else to look at.
