I am not sure how to check "auto power off at " option in BIOS. Yesterday, i let the case open and the system did not crash last night. I will keep the case open for few more days and see what happens. 
 
Thanks,
Naveen.

One simple and obvious thing comes to mind, only because no one has
mentioned it yet:

Does the BIOS on the machine have an "auto power off at " option? 
And is it active?
