Hi guys.

we have a webserver machine that runs win8.1

over the last week when i come in in the morning the server is off.

if i look in eventviewer at id6006 i can see "The Event log service was stopped." but im at a loss to why this is happening.

any ideas?

updates are set to install manually but ok to download. power settings dont have anything for shutting down.

this always happens when everyone has gone home. in the day its rock solid. very strange.
 
Go into the bios and DISABLE all intel power saving features, C states, throttling etc etc, make it so it never throttles.

My server was doing this due to that, the work around is to use throttle stop to force the cpu to run slow (which bizarelly lowers the volts but it doesnt crash it), and if your not doing anything cpu intensive it will save power during the day as well.
