  Sounds like some cooling problems. Check the temperature.

  Thanks on the heat heads-up... I changed the heat-sink and the CPU temp is reduced to 56 degree...
  
  But even that still got restart sometimes... I scan with Norton got no virus and with ad-Aware got no spyware... What else could be wrong???

  Not too sure if there is enough power supplied. The possibility of this is low, but just want to double check to make sure.
  
  List the full specs of your computer. The power of the PSU (in watts) is on the PSU itself. Look at the sticker.

  I think it is BIOS settings;
  
  - i suspect settings in Power options in BIOS, regarding Wake System on IRQ interrupt something like that.. or Modem Wake setting.
  
  Check it out...
