Hi Gene!
I think I would look into several things:
1. As Ed has suggested, check out the jobs in cron.
2. If the unit is not on a UPS, see if you can borrow one. Power
problems can be time related. For instance, if that is the time a
local farmer chooses to start his irrigation pumps it could cause a
voltage "sag" or spike which makes your computer freeze.
3. Do a spy ware, virus, and root kit scan.
Good Hunting!
Tod
