so far no reboot in safe mode... but the reboots are quite random, so i can't be too sure yet! if windows holds up in safe mode, what do think may be the cause?

Well...if you get random reboots in safe mode...chances are it is a hardware issue.

You might try replacing the RAM...just in case...but beyond that...you're most likely looking at a motherboard or video card issue.

or even worse...a processor problem.
