Sounds like you have either a bad RAM chip or Motherboard issue. You
could try flashing your system bios and see if that helps. To flash your
system bios you may have to access the support website for your computer,
there you will find faq's and tech docs on how to do it. If you got a
Dell it would be www.support.dell.com
I had this problem before back when I ran Windows 98 and it would reboot on
me like yours did, turns out it wasn't a bad RAM chip but a RAM chip not
completed seated into the bank. You might want to check to make sure the
RAM is seated fully in the socket, or take it to someone who can give it a
once over if you're not savvy opening up the case and doing it.

type of motherboard type of ram
general setup would help
on Gigabyte motherboards like mine turning off top performance in
the bios corrected similar fault.
