it always restarts for no reason. what is going on?
------------------
There's a girl in my mirror
I wonder who she is
Sometimes I think I know her
Sometimes I really wish I did
Probally either the Power supply Unit or the CPU (Heat problems).
Open the PC up and check the connections to all components and check that the fan is firmly attached to the CPU cause if it isn't then the CPU will overheat and your PC will reset.

Hey Em,
yes, your CPU is overheating forcing it to switch itself off.
It is probably because:
A)you have something blocking the air intake
B)Your intake has clogged with dust
C)your fan has worn out.
it is most likely A or B, give the intake a good clear, if it still buggers up go and buy a new fan from MAPLINS or PC World, take the old one with you.
Hope it helps,
