if it continues to reboot by itself, turn off the automatic reboot on error,
so that if the server has an error (as opposed to dodgy ups etc) then you
will get the old blue screen of death and no reboot hopefully, that has
useful info in it. ( i think sbs2003 has that option, sbs2000 does - if it
doesn't ignore this!).
that has helped me identify a dodgy ISDN card in one instance.
also had an instance where someone plugged a hover (vacuum cleaner) into UPS
outlet (had a 4 way block on it so UK 3 pin PSUs that come with routers etc
could be protected) - that overloaded UPS causing it to down the server :-) ,
though the UPS didn't come back up as the overload tripped out.
