Does my computer just miss me or what?

Restore points are handy if you make one manually, make the changes that might cause trouble, and then restore to just before the changes if there's trouble.

Since I don't make manual points, it's never been of use to me.

Think "last known good config" only helps on failed boot; every time the system starts succesfully, that becomes the "last known good config". Don't think it will do you much good in this case.

Something I thought about is some CPU powersaving option in the BIOS. Maybe the down-volting makes it unstable, leading to a crash eventually. Bit of a longshot though.
