Win7 x64 random reboots
Over the past 3 days my PC has automatically rebooted at least 5 times. It has also frozen twice (with the screen filled with garbage - a gazillion repeats of a small section of the last active window, I think). No BSOD.
I see no log entries reporting anything at the time of failure, but on reboot it logged

Any suggestions for where I begin debugging this?
FYI, The PC was custom-built by NCIX (aka. Netlink Computer Inc.) of Canada.
Win7 x64 Home was pre-installed but I upgraded to PRO a month ago.
