Could be a marginal power supply. A hardware group might
be able to assist you with this one.

You might start with trying to prevent the automatic restart. Right-click
My Computer, choose Properties, Advanced, Startup and Shutdown, de-select
Automatically Restart.

This will *not* fix the problem, but if it is a crash rather than a reaction
to a power interruption, you'll see a potentially helpful error message.

Drag and drop is a move function not a copy function.
