You need to gather and provide considerably more information, unless
there's someone on list who is psychic.  FreeBSD version, hardware
data, etc ...

However, spontaneous reboots are almost always hardware problems.  Have
you verified that your RAM, hard drive, cooling, power, and all other
hardware factors are in proper operation?  That would be the first
logical step in diagnosing this.
