  • Answer:

    When booting the computer press F8. Then you will see boot options. Scroll down and click on do not restart on failure. This will give you a message as to why it's rebooting. You could have bad RAM, bad HD, or you could need an updated driver. You can also trying booting into safe mode with networking and try doing updates to see if that fixes the problem.

Adding to Bows Answer. My laptop experienced similar problems as it turns out the cooling on my laptop wasn't enough and I had to purchase a cooling pad for the bottom. Try Bows answers first then if all else fails get a cooling tray for the laptop.
