Go here (see picture) make sure the auto restart is un checked. Next time it happens it wont reboot and you can then investigate the cause.

Let us know if you need help

There a few likely causes - heat, drop in electricity, shoddy driver. Those may not cause your problem, but it is a place to start. Check whether your box is clean. Lint, etc. can raise the temperature.
And if you get a blue screen as per zigzag's instructions, give us the bugcheck codes.
