I have no earthly idea what could be happening here. I just bought my first legit copy of Windows (XP Pro). I formatted my HDDs and installed on the smaller one (120 gigs). First, I did all my Windows updates, etc., and everything works beautifully.

I installed limewire. Bam.. halfway through the configuration (after the installation), the monitor kicks out and flashes a few times, then the PC reboots.

I uninstalled limewire, made sure I had the latest version of Java, then rebooted. I reinstalled limewire, then rebooted. Opened it up.. waited about 1 minute, then tried a test search, and about 3 seconds after I hit the "search" button, it does the same thing. I have a firewall, but it's set to allow anything limewire related - plus a firewall shouldn't cause a reboot anyways.

I have antivirus (AVG) but the resident shield is not installed, so it shouldn't actively scan or interfere with anything at all. I believe the only Windows service I disabled was the Wireless Zero configuration - I don't need that.

So.... any ideas whatsoever? I had the same problem on my previous install of Windows but gave up.. now I'm just determined to get this weirdness fixed.
