Default EVO reboots 20 times a day randomly

Why does my EVO reboot on its own all day long ? Worked fine the first month or so as I got it on the day it was released. But the last month has been hell. I cant even use it anymore.

Thought it might be the sdcard with 2.2, got a class 6 card. still reboots
Thought it might be a certain app, did a factory reset and installed nothing. Nope.
Overheating? installed a temp widget. Just rebooted at 97.7. Nope.

anyone have any clues whatsover ?

I am currently on 2.1 rooted cause i figured maybe it was a 2.2 problem cause that is about when it started happening. But that didnt help either.

Are you overclocking? Rooted? Did this happen since the day you got it?

Need more information.

I'd try installing aLogcat to see if you can track what is causing the reboots
