A suggestion too - if you have mysterious reboots, turn off
"Automatically reboot" in the System control panel, under the Advanced
tab, and click the Startup and Recovery button.  That way, you
actually see the blue screen with the information that caused the
BSOD.

Otherwise, check the Event Logs, but I've seen times where crashes
were not properly recorded in the event logs.  So, turn off auto
reboot may be the best option.
