Your PC specs and more a detailed description of your problem will go along ways toward getting you help ;)

give a description of your computer like what windows are you using, cpu speed, amount of ram & does this restart happen before you get to windows or after getting into windows.

when it does a restart next time, go into the bios/setup screen to pc monitoring or something like that to see what the cpu temp is. sounds like possible overheating as i've seen that on a friend's pc when his p4 cpu bracket broke causing the heatsink to tilt on 1 corner thereby causing the cpu to overheat.

I think thats your problem right there, i mean 70 Celsius is right around 160 degrees fahrenheit. I cant imagine that ever being normal. Is your heatsink getting power, fan spinning, heatsink properly attached w/ thermal paste?
