I had similar problems and I guess they are hardware/acpi related

In a certain case I changed the 2x agp video card into a 8x (the bios allowed 
auto, 4x and 8x) and the machine could reboot then

In another case I enabled or disabled  the "acpi 2.0 enable" option in the 
bios

Another case I changed the apic (!acpi) setting in the bios

And appearently the Celeron 2.13Ghz S478 has this problem on Asus MBs, 
changing it resolves the reboot issue too.

On my notebook I got this when hw.acpi.cpu.cx_lowest was not C1

in all this cases disabling acpi at boot time made no difference
