Computer blacks out after period of not being in use, won't come back?

I have turned off all the power saving/hibernation settings. Did a system restore to an earlier date. Usually when i get up in the morning I can just click and the screen comes up. Now, i have to keep manually shutting it off and on over and over to get it to work.. Help?

Update:

the main light on the computer is still on but the monitor is black.. I have to manually turn the whole system off and on multiple times to get a usable screen. this started last week. usually i leave the computer on all of the time and when i would hit a key it would wake up. now, no matter what key i hit nothing comes up.. im worried this is a potential hard drive failure..
