First you need to turn off the "Reboot on Error" option.
- to use Windows speak: Automatically restart on System failure.
Use the link below, to see how to do this.
Next time your system fails, instead of restarting, it should present you with a BSOD (blue screen of death) which will have an error code as part of the display.
Google/yahoo the error code, and you should find someone has seen it before - and may find advice on how to fix it.
Good Luck.
If you have no reset switch, in order to power off from a BSOD hold in the power button for about six seconds!

If you can stay connected to the Internet for several minutes, try going to download.com and get Ad-Aware, Spybot S&D, and AVG antivirus programs. Install them, run the updates, and let them scan your machine. All are free to download and keep. Be sure you download the file that has red or purple stars by its name - not the "paid result links" that will appear above the file you want to download.
Alternately, try using a different browser, as your Internet Explorer may be damaged or compromised. I suggest the very good & extremely popular Firefox web browser. I've included the links for Firefox and download.com [for the spyware programs] below.
Good luck~

Check to see if you install and software before the problem started - if that is the case try un-installing it and reboot your computer.Troubleshooting your computer takes various steps so don't start to believe you are suffering from virus or your computer is damaged.I had a similiar problem and this option solved it.Good luck

If your computer is not working properly while you are working on it, it could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software.

What Anti-virus program are you running, and what malware/spyware programs are you using?
