What OS are you running? If it's Windows 2000 or XP, a reboot will
automatically occur if the OS encounters certain critical errors. This is a
self-protection feature. I've seen my server (Win2000) do this.Something
could be crashing you're OS.If you run either of these OS's and want further
help, feel free to email me.
As far as your power supply, get a 300 watt one, as others have recommended.
If you're running all that crap inside, you're at risk of frying your 200
watt one. Also, as a general rule, NEVER listen to Gateway tech support.
Most of them really have no idea what they're talking about.
You could also have one of a million motherboard issues, as someone else
pointed out. I would eliminate the possibility of any software issues before
I tore my box apart, though.

BEGIN PREVIOUS COMMUNIQUE:
For several months now, my computer has been randomly shutting down,
and then starting right back up. Its almost like a flicker....the way I've
described it in the past is like someone is just barely taking the power
cord out, and putting it right back  in....The screen goes blank for an
instant, and then it goes right into boot mode.
