Have you done any Virus or Spyware scans?

Also have you installed any new programs, hardware, updates, ect.

When you see that in the morning are you able to enter in the following key combination:

crtl+alt+del

then try to access the taskmanager.

Are you using a preinstalled screen saver or one you found/purchased.

sometimes certain types of screen savers can cause that problem too.

if not try a system restore to restore your OS to an earlier date before you noticed the problem.
