    My duron 1.3G does the same thing as soon as it hits around 70 degrees
    C. I improved it a bit with a bigger fan, but it still does it. I've
    been told that my particular chip runs the hottest of the AMD's, and
    that later models make a lot less heat. By running it with the side
    cover off it runs a lot cooler, so I can do kernel compiles no worries
    now. But anything like Setiathome, video processing, or encoding a batch
    of MP3's causes a reboot.

    I know yours isn't an AMD, but on the AMD web site there is a good PDF
    that runs through how to design a good cooling setup. Sorry I don't have
    a link handy, but I think I found it through Google.
