Best Answer

There are many causes for this. The problems tend to fall in the below categories:

Hardware failure or other hardware problems

  • Failing power supply
  • Overheating CPU, bad CPU fan
  • BIOS selection switch in wrong position
  • Failing memory chips
  • Hard drive stalling or failing - If Windows cannot access certain files, it crashes.

Software and Operating system Issues

  • The operating system is incompatible with the computer, or OS bugs that manifest on certain hardware.
  • Driver problems, incompatible drivers
  • Certain CMOS settings were changed since the operating system was installed. Changing hard drive modes (AHCI, RAID, IDE) after installing Windows will cause Windows 7 to go into a reboot loop.
  • Software not compatible with the OS
  • Poorly written software
  • Certain malware or viruses
  • User is unfamiliar with the low power features.
  • An OS crash. If the blue screen stuff is disabled, the computer may simply reboot, and it may appear to be for no reason.
