My computer randomly shuts down and restarts with no warning. I recently replaced the hard drive and install Windows Vista and I am still experiencing shut downs. Any ideas or suggestions on what can be down?

Check the temperatures-particularly the cpu temperature, in the bios. I would also run memtest to check the RAM. You can find out how much RAM you have by going to Control Panel/System.
