It is a programme or a piece of hardware that is not behaving itself. You should find a logfile in the C: directory that gives some information.

the problem might be you either have a virus on your pc that is spreading on your pc or you hae a missing driver on your pc or might be you installed something and something has gone missing off your pc causing the pc to have a blue screen come up then rebooting itself i have never had this problem before but i would suggest it could be one of the reasons i have just mentioned

If you press f8 during start up, you can disable the automatic reboot on error.

This will allow you to read the blue screen error.

9 time out of 10 i have found that it is the RAM, it may have ESD from dust or from removal(people that do not get rid of all there static electricity before they touch hardware)
