Well, usually a real hardware error (uncorrectable memory MCE, or CPU memory MCE, or PCI MCE) will cause an immediate reset (no reset button needed). That error could be a result of the reset button being pressed, and not really a hardware error. I work with enterprise vendors hw and they classify the stupidest things as errors (on a reboot they classify the nics and fiber channel cards losing link as hardware errors--and this happens every boot on device init, the the boot "errors" are 100x-1000x more common than the actual real life link downs--so their false alarm rate in horrible). What kind of MB/HW is it?
