Check your .dmp files - they will tell you the code and why it rebooted - if they did not write - check the event log and follow the error code back to microsoft - try SP2 - sound's like a hardware error - graphics card, printer driver etc try new updated drivers

#2 Parts failure. Probably the power supply, possibly the cpu fan or even failing capacitors on the motherboard.
#3 Virus. Self explanitory.
