Do you have any peripherals connected to this machine?

Subject: Spontaneous Reboots


Windows 2000 Professional SP2
PIII 450mhz/512MB Ram

Any idea on where to begin troubleshooting spontaneous reboots on a Win2k
machine?  Should I be replacing hardware first (bad ram chips, hd, etc), or
seeing if a software conflict is the cause.
The machine will (not 100% reproducable, but enough to be damn annoying),
reboot without warning and without any kind of error log except for the
minidump log generated, which is cryptic at best.

Obviously no one can give me any kind of hard diagnosis without specifics,
but should I be concentrating primarily on hardware or software as the
culprit?
There's nothing out of the ordinary on the machine, certainly nothing Ive
not put on any other machine: Office 2000, Visual Studio Enterprise SP5,
Winamp, InoculateIT PE, etc.

Anyone ever have to deal with something like this?

Thanks.
