What is the best/easiest way to schedule an automatic restart of a computer
at a specific time each night?

Using Task Scheduler, create a task (repeating daily, at your desired time)
for the following:

SHUTDOWN -r -t 01

More information can be read here:

Note that the Microsoft KB article refers to Windows 2000, but the SHUTDOWN
command has the same functionality as the Windows XP version.
