Did you rule out overheating ?

Is it automatically rebooting? or you have to manually reboot after each failure.

Operating system ?

??

Rule out overheating?

Yes, it is automatically rebooting.
My operating system windows XP

When the PC becomes too hot, it might be set to reboot.

Does the pc shut down, or crashes? ie. do you get the screen "saving your settings", "shutting down" etc, or does it just blank out?

It's like hitting the reset button.

But thing is, that I never had this before. My PC ran good for
about 4 - 5 months and now this problem has occured.

How do I rule out overheating?

And is 50 celsius normal for motherboard?

Maybe the power supply is broken. Can you test with parts of other computers?

No, my power supply is not broken.

But it is however to small, I have had this to small power supply for over
4 months though. It ran fine first.

try to disable auto restart to see on bsod what the problem is.
