ya this is the same problem i had with TylerG's computer.  Visit this thread and look for answers. http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=56...d=607797#pid607797

although i never posted the real out come (since I figured it out on IRC) the problem was simple:  The heat sink braces fell out and the heat sink would fall off the processor.  I fixed it by getting the metal part of two clothes pins to use a braces since the old ones broke.

i had this problem not long ago, i think it was caused by WLM as when i switched to MSN it was fine and when i was offline but as soon as i signed in it re-booted my PC  (or within 5 minutes max),
anyway - i did a system format and re-installed WLM with share folders off and got my mate to delete the files out of it and then i didnt get the problem and *touch wood* havent had probles since ( and i use both the share folders and WLM)
so i think it was just a corrupt file somewhere,
maybe a system format is to drastic for you? - but it's my security ( "it dont work - il format it ") yer - sad i know, but it has worked with most problems including graphics card problems and reboot problems (this  one) and a few others.
anyway, if it isnt to much hassle for you and nothing else works just try a format.

This can be caused by many things.. This used to happen to me when I only had 512 Mb of RAM.. When I upgraded to 1Gb everything became normal.. Or maybe, it was just a coincidence .

well everybody, looks like everything is going okay...my msn hasnt signed off or my pc hasnt rebooted by its self for about 6 hours now thx everyone for helping
