My PC reboots whenever it loses its wireless connection

puffff

I noticed my desktop PC seemed to be rebooting intermittently. I'd come home and realize none of the windows I had up were still there. I decided to stay in the same room for a while and keep an eye on it, and sure enough, after about an hour, the thing restarted itself.

Now I was on my laptop at the time, and noticed that I dropped my wireless signal on my laptop right when the reboot occurred. Since my desktop is also using a wireless card, I'm wondering if the two events are somehow related.

Has anyone seen anything like this before (computer restarting whenever the wireless signal drops)? I read upping the channel on my router will decrease the chance of a drop, and I went ahead and made that fix, but I'm still curious whether/why the drops are causing my PC to reboot.
 
No that should not happen. I think you're probably having other problems with your PC. Virus? Hardware prob?
