DCOM error, restarting

[Guest]

I have a problem and I hope I can find help here. A few weeks ago my computer
started to restart on it's own. Also, every once in awhile the monitor would
shut off and go into power saving mode, while the computer would remain
running. I would just put the computer into sleep mode, wake it up, and all
would be fine. But the restarts are the big problem. I went to event viewer
and got these 2 error logs.

Any help would be greatly appreciated since I don't know what else to do. I
thought mayb e a heat problem, but now I am not so sure. Thanks

This is an error in the WMI, and is probably security related. Windows
Management Instrumentation is the part of the system that controls remote
access to the system.

I would suspect some virus or Trojan, but you might try refreshing the
system files to repair a potentially damaged WMI. To repair all system
files, go to Start/Run, and type: SFC /SCANNOW
