I have a Desktop PC (Hcl Ezeebee, 512 MB Ram, 80 GB Sata HDD, Intel Dual Core Processor,) with Windows XP operating system. Sometimes when i start my PC, it reboots itself just before windows desktop shows up. It reboots itself sometimes up to 5 times in succession. What makes my computer to reboot itself multiple times? Is it due to somekind of virus? I have superantispyware and spyware doctor installed. How can i get rid of this problem? Thanks

Try creating another user account and see it. There might be many problems for that cause. I think there is an option called PME event in the bios settings, if that is enabled sometimes the computer will restart (a friend of mine working in assembling department in a showroom said me)
If both the above doesn't work then should be some sort of virus so you need to format atleast the drive that has OS in it.

if your computer restarts again and again
there could be two possibles
1.virus attack
2.ram problem
try to install antivirus and update it regularly for 1 st problem
for the second remove your ram from pc take a rubber and try to clean it at the bottom of the ram
i have done this many time it works...........
