There is some useful info. here:
Windows XP restarts unexpectedly or restarts when you shut down the computer

Hope that is helpful

Do you by any chance have Roxio software installed on that PC? I remember having the exact same problem a long time ago. It turned out that the version of Roxio Easy CD Creator that I had installed at that time was causing Windows XP to restart even when selecting 'Turn Off' from the 'Shut Down' menu, which didn’t make any sense. Go figure.
