Turn off the automatic restart on system failure feature.

Click: Start>Control Panel>System>Advanced tab>Startup and Recovery settings> Remove the checkmark from [ ] Automatically restart and click ok.

Now instead of restarting you will get an error message. You can then diagnose the problem with that error message.

Yes, the system will crash and you most likely will get a 'Blue Screen of Death' type error message.
