    Some possibilities

    A) You have a faulty power supply, but that would shut down your entire system rather than restarting. This is unlikely but possible
    B) Your CPU is dying or overheating.
    C) You have a virus.
    D) You've installed Service Pack 2 (ok, joke on this one, but SP2 has given me problems so I took it off).
