Poweredge server powering down by itself using SBS 2003

Hi,

I am new to the server world of computing, and recently purchased a new Dell
server, Poweredge 1800 with Small business server 2003. The computer is
supposed to be on at all times, however, when we come into work in the
morning, it is usually powered down. After numerous conversations with Dell
support, and some diagnostic testing, they concluded that it was a software
issue. Here are the error messages - please help, or advise. we are trying
to not run the computer as a domain controller.

Thanks

In reviewing the DSET log, I found the following references for which there
are repeats for multiple days. The errors are being reported by the operating
system to the event log:

The server was shut down because it did not comply with the EULA. For more
information, contact Microsoft.

configured as a domain controller. To prevent this computer from shutting
down in the future, run Setup on the disk that you used to install the
operating system to configure the computer as a domain controller.
