Restarting

My computer restarts itself at least once a day. I'm not sure how often, but its at least several hours in between restarts. I'm running Win XP pro and I've just formatted a week ago.

Might be your heat, might be your RAM, might be your PS, there are many thing that might be causing it.
Please post more info, like your system config, what apps you have running.
Does it restart when idle, or when you are doing something.
The more details you can give the easier it is for us to help.

Okay, I built my own system. I have an Athlon XP 2500 that isn't running with a 266Mhz bus because my system board only supports PC266 RAM....I have 768 megs of that. I have a g-force 3.

It seems to restart when its doing something, but i think it retarted last night when it was idle.....what else do you need to know?
