My new A8N-SLI system recently started to cease responding to input from keyboard and mouse after it's been on overnight. This happens whether it's idle or running a task like Prime 95. The next morning, the screen will be black, and it's impossible to "wake" the computer with either keyboard or mouse.
There is no BSOD.
The computer is not in Standby mode because the fans continue to run.
A possible CLUE is that hitting the power button turns off the machine immediately whereas it must be depressed for more than four seconds when it's running normally.
The Corsair RAM passes 10+ hours of Prime 95 Torture Test.
The voltages on all rails are nearly perfect per MBM5, but a little low per Asus Probe -- i.e, varying from spec by 4-5% rather than the 3% guaranteed by the Antec TPII 500.
I've disabled CnQ without benefit.
Can anyone give me a good guess where to start the troubleshooting?
