Computer crashes same time every day.

[HomicidalWookie]

I have been having problems with my computer lately so I reformatted, however after this reformat my computer crashes every night at midnight and refuses to turn back on for some time. Any ideas what causes this?

disable time sensitive software. Things to disable would be virus scanners, backup utilities, any bios alarm settings, disable any permissions (doubtful you have this), any other alarm/scheduled events including defrags, scandisk, etc. If need be go into safe mode and see if it persists there.
