Also, you might try disabling automatic reboot when a BSOD shows up: Start -> Control Panel -> System -> Advanced -> Startup and Recovery -> Uncheck "Automaticlly Restart"

Did you check the event log?
Start -> Control Panel -> Adminstrative Tools -> Event Log
hmm... would this show what happened before it rebooted itself though?? ive only glanced at it atm, just trying to google an answer for the past hour...

I'm curious when you say new machine do you mean self built, from shop , or 2nd hand perhaps this may shed some light on the subject
its never happened in IE but i never use IE anyway, ill browse with IE for a few days to see if it reboots with IE as well and its not some freak thing with FF. As for where my machine came from, i built it myself, but had alot of help from my dad who has been building them for years....
