Superman59,
It could be the just about anything, power supply, video driver, sound card, motherboard, cpu, memory, or hard drive. I had this changed when I had rebooting problems. It was under warranty! It is not the operating system, so no need to re-install XP. Try unplugging (if you have) printer, scanner, everything but computer, monitor, and keyboard and mouse. After that I would look at the following in order, power supply, video card, memory, motherboard, cpu.
This is a tough problem and might end up very costly. Consider the cost of all these parts against a new computer!

Searching your system error messages may help determine what the cause is. You can do that by following these instructions:
Go to your Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Event Viewer Check under the System Tab for any listed error messages. If any are found, repost them in a new thread or go to http://www.google.com and input the error message in the search box to see if solution may be listed. Kip
