Dodgy battery... maybe?

do you happen to have another hard drive hanging about? maybe in another laptop? so you could check...

Could be that your system is overheating. Run it in safe mode, download and install PCWizard, and report the temps.

Is it blue screening then restarting? Try checking the system log (right click on my computer, pick manage. Expand System Tools and then expend Event Viewer and select System. Look around the time your system restarted and see if there is a red X with a source of system error. If there is one double click it and post the numbers.

If there's nothing that doesn't necessarily rule out blue screening but it may be worth scanning your RAM for errors with memtest. You can also check the hdd for errors with seatools or some other diagnostic tool.
