    Well, not so fast.
    What power supply do you have?
    When it restarts, what are you doing?
    Have you downloaded a copy of Memtest? (You need to put it on a floppy or CD and boot off of it.) Do you get any errors when you run it?

    While I would be inclined to believe that the PSU is the problem, why don't you check a few things first before shoving it off.
