linney Thanks for the reply. I am actually dual-booting Windows 7 RC and XP SP3 so partition imaging would be a little cumbersome. I'll probably just schedule a daily system state backup with ERUNT and turn off System Restore in Windows 7.

Is it possible to redirect the folder System Volume Information, perhaps with a custom Group Policy Object or a System variable? This would seem to be a solution to the issue Vista has with System Restore in a dual-boot. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/926185 No restore points are available...

It could be a heat problem. Check if the cpu fan is running. Check your cpu temp in the Bios. Also check your throttle down temp in the Bios. I've run into machines where that was set to low and the computer constantly rebooted.
