My system will restart all on its own at no particular time or schedule. There are no error messages, it is just as if I manually restarted my computer, but I did not. This can happen several times within a 3 or 4 hour time frame. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks, John

To update your system files using Windows Update
In Windows XP Home Edition, you must be logged on as a computer administrator to install components or modify Automatic Updates settings In Windows XP Professional, you must be logged on as an administrator or a member of the Administrators group If your computer is connected to a network, network policy settings might also prevent you from completing this procedure.
Windows Update is a catalog of items such as drivers, security fixes, critical updates, the latest Help files, and Internet products that you can download to keep your computer up-to-date.
Open Windows Update in Help and Support Center
On the Windows Update home page, click Scan for updates
Click Yes when prompted to install any required software or device drivers
Note
Windows Update scans your computer for outdated system files and lets you replace them with the most recent versions
