    There's no entry in the event log ?!?!?!

    Or did it get erased ? I usually search with a filter for the event number, or sometimes omit the informational logs to see just the more important ones.

    I am on Windows 2003, but I assume 2008 has the same options, if not more.

  • Sometimes log entry doesn't get written when windows update causes the reboot. You might want to check the windows update log.
