It could be a few problems... My first thought was a bad power supply... Perhaps try it in safe mode and see if it works any better. Try to find some drivers, run spyware/virus scans, post hijackthis logs...

Anytime something smells like its burning means something is wrong lol... What are the specs for this system? Does it give any blue screens or does it just reboot?
