No, there aren't any power loads that kick in.  In 2 of the environments,
the power is completely conditioned and probably the cleanest I've seen
around.  And the problem occurs in multiple locations around the country.

And even if it was power, I'd have a real problem with a computer company
that couldn't make servers that would run on the same power source that
other vendor's servers can.  If I have to go around to all my buildings and
re-wire or purchase some special power conditioner just to make a
run-of-the-mill server work, then the server is a piece of garbage, IMHO.

Some more thoughts,

If you don't want to install any more software, try a probe.  I purchased a
few "Dual Temp Monitor Racks" from www.coolerguys.com for $26.  I removed
them from the 5.25 tray - the probes are very small and can check just about
anything.  Also I have seen temp/humidity recorders - they can take samples
for 24 hours or a whole week.  You may want to look for one of these to
record environmental conditions.  Also, are there any large electrical loads
that may pull a bunch of amps (like a compressor kicking on) on the power
circuit?

To do a good heat test...

Go to http://mbm.livewiredev.com/ and download Motherboard Monitor 5.

Once you get Motherboard Monitor 5 working and giving you CPU temps, go to 
http://users.ev1.net/~redelm/ and download the CPU BURN.

Run the CPU BURN and watch the temp on Motherboard Monitor 5.  See if the 
temp goes up and the system shuts down.  If it shuts down, it will do it 
within seconds.
