Check the cooling fan on your processor Processors can overheat very quickly (especially AMD processors) if the fan unit isn't properly mounted, or isn't working at all Also, check your BIOS settings to see if some other threshold isn't being exceeded.

Most likely it is blue-screening due to a hardware conflict but you have it set up to reboot instead of showing the error Think back on any hardware you may have added Also do a Winodws update and a BIOS update to be sure you have the latest drivers
