Sleep leads to Reboot
I have been wanting to ask this for a while now. When I put my PC (Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit) into SLEEP, 98% of the times, it works properly.
However, 2% of the time, it would REBOOT instead and even sometime, reset my BIOS. It has been like this for the last 4 years.
Question:
Is it a RAM setting of some type? It doesn't happen enough; it has been hard for me to diagnose. When it does happen, then it just screws everything up. Fortunately, I have a copy of the CMOS saved.

Actually, what would be a good program which checks the settings of my RAM and diagnose if they have been set properly (such as voltage, channels, etc...)?

Have you looked in Event Viewer after the machine boots back up to see if you see anything?
As you know - people could suggest 80 different things but it could be weeks before you know if anything fixed it.
