Restarting Issues

I've seen a similar problem in the past where the CPU (central processing unit) will overheat and the BIOS will automatically shutdown/restart the computer at a certain temperature. Perhaps have a look and see if there is anything in the bios. There might even be a CPU temperature monitor if you are lucky and you could let us know the figures.0

I had done what you had told me, and when the cmputer restarted the screen went blue. Could You explain to me what that means.

Sorry for my delay in responding to you. Opening the BIOS is very simple - usually you just press either the Delete, F1 or F2 key as soon as you power your computer up. If you press it at repeated intervals you should be presented with a screen which you may not have seen before. That would be the BIOS. If you have a look around the menus etc. for something like "Reboot on CPU temperature:" or similar you might discover the reason behind your problem. (There's usually a list of keyboard commands to the right)
Be careful you don't change any settings unless you know the consequences as it could prevent you from starting your computer and you will run into all sorts of trouble.
Thanks
