Go into BIOS and check that 'wake on LAN' is turned off. Make sure you have
nothing set in scheduled starts.

Also, are you set for auto-updates? Are there updates to be installed?

If your computer is restarting spontaneously, you are presumably
blue-screening, and you are set to the default of rebooting whenever
that happens. It's a poor default setting and you should change it.
Right-click My Computer, and choose Properties. On the Advanced tab,
click Settings under Startup and Recovery. Under System failure,
uncheck the box "Automatically restart.

Now when the problem occurs again, instead of restarting, you will get
the blue screen with diagnostic information. Post back with those
details for more help.

Also note that this is more likely to be a hardware problem than a
Windows one.
