Help Random Restart/Shutdown Prompts

So my phone has been giving me random restart prompts for no apparent reason. It will be fine for 20-30 mins then start giving me the restart/shutdown prompt repeatedly. At first I thought it was the power button so I tried remapping it by disabling it and making the search button the power button. Same issue. I tried restoring it to stock by sbf. Same thing. Tried a different ROM, same issue. I finally got annoyed enough to just completely cut the power switch and it still happens. I'm at a loss for what could be causing it. I've already replaced it with a Galaxy S3 I got on eBay but I want to make use of my old Droid X as a desk clock/weather alert/news/media player/etc.

At this point I'm almost ready to just take a hammer to it and forget it just to ease my frustration. Anyone have any ideas?
