It starts to boot up, goes to the Windows XP screen that has the scrolling, wait thing and then shuts off. Then I have to wait at least 5 minutes to start up again, then it starts right away. But it will not restart if I hit Start, Turn off computer, Restart. It also won't restart if I install new programs and have to restart after. How can I fix this?

run msconfig, uncheck programs that you do not need under the startup tab

Do one thing, follow these steps and see if that makes any difference or not: -
1)unplug all the cables (including the power cable) from the back of the computer. Hold the power button for at least 5 to 10 seconds.
2) Now connect the cables in the following manner: -
a) power cable
b) display cable
c) keyboard and mouse cable.
3) Boot the PC, goto bios, clear NVRAM and restart PC.
4) Once PC boots keep an eye on the fan at the rear of
the computer tower, check if that switches off before your computer goes off or not, if it shuts off ubreptly then the problem would possibly lie with fan.
5) if after doing these things, you do not come across the problem again then connect rest of the cables one by one and see if you still experience the same problem or not.
Still experiencing problem, contact me at coolcanc@gmail.com

Very likely your system is overheating about about to fry itself. You better check the fans inside the system and the heatsink on the cpu. You can get into the bios/cmos (instructions should be on the screen-like del key or f2) and check the temps there.

Could be a power supply problem or you have a service that is causing problems. Boot into the safe mode and see what happens.
