Win 7 Pro - Auto rebooting after BSOD

Win 7 Pro Pc started rebooting unexpectedly. I tried uploading the file but its 657 meg. I compressed it but its still 200 meg. How do i get it to you.

It's in a Windows 2008 R2 domain. it's a dell desktop that's been working well until a few weeks ago. No idea what caused it to start. Your suggestions are appreciated.

Perhaps the "Automatically Start" box got checked in Control Panel|System|Advanced System Settings (top left)|click Settings button in the Startup and Recovery section.  Uncheck it.

If that is not the problem try a System Restore to a time before this started.

Yes, I just set it to create a mini dump instead of a large dump. I'm sure it will be created in the next 24 hours.
Ok I will also have a look in 24 hours :-)

I tried running the Dell 32 bit diags from the Dell diag partition but the diagnostics partition was deleted when the hard drive was replaced.

I download a dell 32 bit Diag iso file (cdd_1284) from dell's site but when I booted from it, it said it didn't support that Pc.

Can anyone direct me to the proper ISO for the dell 32 bit diag? Service Tag 5P3D8P1

i ran memtest on it at 6pm last night.  It was still running this and had not found any errors. attached is the pic of the results at that time. the user restarted the Pc because he needed it at 9AM this morning.

Yesterday he was out of the office for a few hours and left his Pc logged in. When he came back, it was locked up had to hold the power button in and then do a cold start. No error messages on the screen when it locked.
