Restarting when booting

[PennyB]

My 2000 machine rebooted several times before eventually loading this morning. Each time before the actual windows started, before the 'verifying the DMI Pool Data ' part.

I gave the disk a scan and a chkdsk and it rebooted fine, thankfully. Would it be the mbr or hardware that's causing it?

Thanks

More info:

Now I've watched it again this morning, it reboots after every stage of the boot, ie: deteccting drives, pool data, the bar going across, and the windows blue line. It's likeit 'forgets' how to load when it's first turned on - normal restarts work fine.
