i've actually had this problem also..however, it turned out to be a BIOS
issue.  i don't recall the specific setting name that i had to change,
but there should be some kind of performance toggle or speed toggle
between "normal" and "turbo".  switching it back to "normal" stopped the
spontaneous reboots for me.  dunno if this will help you in any way, but
it's as much a possibility as anything, i suppose.
