hi guys;

this is my first post to this forum; :D

i have pIII 800 Mhz pc with mercury motherboard;
its about 4 years old, it has very odd problem that it gets restart automatically frequently with out any application runing, although im upgrading my pc to amd 2800 with asus motherboard, just for knowledge purpose, is it hardware or software problem???

i have windows xp pro and win 98; mostly this problem happens in xp and rarely in win 98

what can i do about it???
