Random reboots

My system keeps randumly rebooting. I'm just doing regular things like office apps or serfing the net. I just put it together. Is there a bios setting that I'm missing?
Abit NF7 series with onboard video
AMD XP 2700
2 sticks TwinMOS 184-Pin 128MB DDR PC-2700, Model TM333
Antec 350 W power supply
 
You need a bigger power supply. The rebooting is a not enough power sign. Mine rebooted while surfing till I got a larger power supply and changed nothing else and the rebooting went away with the power supply that was replaced.

350 is small for a system now and the NF-7 likes power that is why there is two connectors ( on NF7-S) for that MB from the PS unless it is a high quaility supply like PCP&C or other big names.
 
Open up the case and make sure only the neccesary items are pugged in. Make sure all your fans aren't using one power connector, but seperate ones, then if it still reboots make sure your heatsink is firmly attached to the cpu.
 
Thank's, I'll try that. I don't think it's the PS though. Antec 350 should be plenty for this system.
 
I updated the Nforce drivers and I think it's fixed. If that's not it, the only other thing I can think of is the memory.
