There are 2 things that come to mind when someone says
random reboots and WinXP in the same sentence. #1 is the
Blaster32 worm and #2 is a processor brownout caused by a
faulty power supply or erratic power coming from your wall
outlet. If you have the virus, save yourself some time and
just re-install. You can get a power supply cheap if that
is the problem. If your house electricity is at blame, get
a UPS (battery backup) for your PC.
