To prevent Windows from rebooting when it encounters a system error:

Control panel -> system -> advanced -> start and recovery "settings" -> uncheck "automatically restart" under system failure.

Also, check the control panel -> administrative tools -> event view -> system or application for a clue as to whats causing it.

Ok, I stopped all non essential processes and closed all running programs, and turned off the automatic restart.... same thing, except it will either hang with the music/sound repeating or it will go to a blank screen and hang.

Checked the event viewer... couldn't find any errors related to UC being run.
