Windows 2000 restarts by default on system failure. You can change this
option in System/Properties, Advanced tab and uncheck the fourth checkbox
(Automatic Restart). Unchecking this option, you wil get the usual NT blue
screen, that can give you more information about the problem.
I had a motherboard (ASUS P3C2000) based on a Intel 820 chipset that boots
win2k at least once a day. I agree that sounds like a hardware or other
problem. What motherboard and chipset are you using?
