Here's the problem. It seems that whenever there is an update (always during the night) my computer will go into sleep mode. The following morning it is often very difficult if not impossible to bring the computer back to life.
My second major problem is that sometimes the tower will not power up. This happened this morning for several hours. I reset everything; I even turned off the power at the power bar. This of course turned everything off. Nothing. The monitor and everything showed power, however, the tower refused to power up or even light up. Finally, I unplugged the tower for a couple of hours and when I did plug it in it did come on. The computer worked fine. I should not have to do this.
Any suggestions? Should I replace the cable or the tower?
Thanks.

I had that problem last year. I ended up replacing "Norton" security soft ware and haven't had a problem since.

Thanks for the feedback. I think that it is best to manually do the updates and disconnect hibernate and avoid all of the frustrations. Thanks, Carla

It sounds like the power supply might be failing in your computer. But maybe not. I would not let the updates run automatically. Shut the computer off at night so this doesn't happen. Check your computer settings to not allow sleep mode or hibernate. Maybe this will help.

Before you replace the tower or the cable, look in the yellow pages under computer repair shops and have an expert diagnose your problem.
