This machine previously had Linux installed on the box and did not display the same problems, so I'm going on the assumption that its not a hardware failure.

Aside from the reboots the box has been preforming extermely well.

If anybody can provide some insights or suggestions I'd greatly appreciate it.

Check your BIOS settings for a hardware watchdog timer. I had this problem on some brand-new servers (same class of hardware as yours) and disabling the timer stopped the reboots.

Intel 6300ESB, if anyone's interested.
