Are the nvidia drivers installed as rpms (Axel Thimm patches his rpms, a handy benefit)? Anything logged by the kernel/X when it happens? If the drivers are being installed via the script, I'd suggest enabling ATrpms or check out: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=62021 and patch your driver. Also, nvnews.net/vbulletin has quite a few resources. I know the "acpi=off" idea is frequently suggested, along with BIOS upgrades, if applicable.
