Look in the control panel under "System" on the "Advanced" tab look at the settings for Startup and Recovery. Make sure "Automatically Restart" is unchecked. This way you can get a BSOD and a error message to lead you to the problem. If I was guessting I would say it's an IRQ conflict.

If it's already unchecked and it's still restarting, look for bad ram, weak power supply, ect.
