Server restarts frequently

[Guest]

I support a server running Windows 2000. I am not able to understand why it
restarts frequently. The event logs don't help much. The only error event
that is available before the sudden restart is

Event id : 8032
Source : Browser
Description : The browser service has failed to retrieve the backup list too
many times on transport
\Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{AA3D02A0-A28A-4CA2-B85F-5F190E893028}. The backup
browser is stopping.

The server does not create a dump either.

Any tips on how I may isolate the problem

If no BSOD's occur (Event ID: 1001 Source: Save Dump), then it may be a
power problem. I would look at a possible faulty (or undersized) pc power
supply, UPS, bad battery, or the circuit feeding the outlet that the pc is
plugged into.

Definately sounds like some sort of hardware problem to me.
