My system does not auto reboot. It just crashes as if some one has pressed the power off button. I think it is surely some thing to do with power supply. I will  open the case and leave for a day. I will also remove one of the CDROM and see what happens. 

Thanks,

Hi,
I once had a similar situation, and it was caused by an overloaded
power supply. The box would auto-reboot quite regularly. I removed two
cd drives from it and it has not happened since.

I can't say if this is your problem or not, but it's worth considering.
