    Bad or dirty RAM Modules can cause random reboots as can a hot processor. Make sure your fan on the processor is working and the heatsink is clean also make sure your powersupply fan is working along with any additional case fans. If all of that is good then try removing the RAM (make sure the machine is off and unpluged and that you are properly grounded) and gently clean the contacts with a pink pencil eraser and reinstall them and see if it helps.
