About every 10 to 15 minutes, the system shuts down and restarts without
warning. It's very annoying and work cannot be accomplished. Help?
 
Could be a heat related problem, or a weak power supply. Your CPU or Video
card could be getting too hot, and the system protects itself by shutting
down.

Are you getting any errors when this happens?

Have you checked the Event Log?

Normally I would agree, but I have Norton Internet Security, Ad-Aware and
have performed a full system scan; including disabling most of the Win XP
security holes like Messenger Service and Remote Registry. I am at a loss.
