System Reboot During File Transfers

My relatively new install of W2k reboots itself during long directory/file
transfers (simple cut and paste) to an external USB 120 gig hard drive.
It's happened several times now. After the first couple of times, I
reformatted the external HDD from FAT to NTFS, but that hasn't solved the
problem. The OS seems to be fine otherwise. Any idea why this would be
happening?

Sounds like you might want to turn off the auto reboot feature when it
BSOD's. Then you might see you are having network card errors? Check your
event viewer and look at the system log. That or you have a virus.
