Well, I guess you have a cooling problem. I would say your CPU-fan is most likely not working properly anymore. Or another fan is damaged so that the heat can kind of "pile up" inside your box?
I checked my CPU-fan, and it's clean and appears to be working. All the other fans appear to be working fine as well. Also, the CPU temperature after direct reboot after a lock-up is about 52C. The HDs could be suffering from a heat problem, since I got 5 of them in a medium chassis (those wires may be blocking the airflow), but I don't know why that would cause the motherboard to turn itself off (the LED indicating what condition the motherboard is in is turned off during the lock-up). Any info you could give me on this?

I'm afraid, it might be your Power Supply. When did you add the last drive(s)? Did these incidents come up afterwards? I had that problem when I put a third and a fourth disk into my system. It caused the strangest things and I wouldn't be surprised if it would be the same in your case! Good luck Martin
