If you guys have a crashing cgminer (I think we all do, rarity varies), create yourself a new batch file (and place it in your cgminer folder with the rest of your batch files) that kill an reload cgminer every x amount of time. This way you minimize down time especially overnight when you need the much needed sleep. I made this for my Windows 7/8 miners and it works fine.

cd C:\Users\Home\Desktop\cgminer-3.7.2-windows
START _max_smt.bat
timeout /T 1800
taskkill /f /im "cgminer.exe"
timeout /T 10
goto top1
Replace the second and third line with the proper path to you cgminer directory and third line with the name of the batch file with your cgminer settings. Time T is in seconds, so you can adjust it to your liking. Run this batch file to periodically call the batch file you'd normally run instead.

How to make .bat file which will do the same as you made, just kill window after 30 minutes and start new one instead of keeping it opened?
you can use task scheduler in windows too set it to kill the job if it runs after X hours.. then set it to start on idle pc after 1 min...
