The reason for your random restarts are contained in the error
messages.

The example you quoted is defined as a DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
error. The most typical cause is a bad device driver (one that uses
improper addresses). It can also be caused by caused by faulty or
mismatched RAM, or a damaged pagefile.

See MVP Jim Eshelman's web page for STOP errors at
http://www.aumha.org/win5/kbestop.htm and click on the "D1: Driver
IRQL..." link in the right side column for further information.

Good luck
