Is this a VM? Physical Host? How far in the boot process does it get before it resets?  Have you had a chance to look at logs (assuming it stays booted for a little while)?

With all Windows systems you should be able to hit F8 before startup to dictate startup behaviour - such as boot to safe mode, safe mode with networking, and importantly, stop rebooting if stop error encountered.

Also, is it actually restarting (performing a full shutdown before starting back up again) or resetting?

... of course since this happens only infrequently, it'll be some time before it's clear what the situation might be.
