Also after looking in the HP proliant intergrated management log viewer i am seeing critical errors saying:

ASR detected by system ROM

and

Blue screen trap (bugcheck (a long numerical code) )


After doing a bit of research on the net i'm beginning to think it may be a problem with the cooling system. I think it may be overheating a forcing an automatic shut down.

If any one else is anymore knowledgeable and can give any advice it would be much appreciated.

Thanks a lot.

nothing?

Well i've flashed the bios and disabled ASR for the time being. could still do with some more suggestions though as i doubt this will have fixed it...
