Grant,
That is a one unit rack mount server, which makes it prone to have heat
problems, particularly under any load. You might want to check the ambient
heat and the internal heat sensors as well.
That server uses an intel chipset (and probably an intel motherboard) which
should allow "out-of-band" monitoring. You should see what you can use to
monitor the system and see what the system is reporting prior to a lockup.
It may be time to just call dell and have them send a replacement MB or
entire unit.
