Windows XP reboots itself when accessing a cd-rom drive.. The install program from the cd comes up and then the computer just reboots itself. What should I do?

Windows XP reboots itself when accessing a cd-rom drive

Weak PSU? (the extra load when acessing the cdrom causing a voltage drop and a reboot)
Bad CDrom (partial internal short) abnormally high current demand.
Both of these can be elliminated if you have good replacements to swop out.
