Could be overheating the CPU or possibly a Flaky Power Supply. Go here
and download and install Motherboard Monitor. It's free and will give you a
readout of your temps and voltages. The 3.3, 5 and 12v lines should not drop
more
than 5% of their value. The Cpu temp should be no hotter than the 60's
Centigrade.

If you know what CPU you have in your System then you can do a google
search for the Max Temp Values.
