first of all, reinstall your OS, second open the PC and remove all the dust in there with some canned air
that would require a format, i dont realy want to go though that, i have over 250gb of things, i cant really burn it all off either, and also i cant hand the computer over to any one either for 2 reasons, i go to /b/ and mass download files, i have ofer 200000 pics and there is undoubtily something in there that is questionable, and two being that the only place locialy always rips shit that isnt bad out than puts new (but less powerfull) stuff in and resells the old parts later in there store when they are shure that you wont come back anytime soon

that's why you always need a partition for your shit and a partition for your OS, in case your OS fails you can always reinstall it without losing any data
you could buy a new "small" HD (10GB or so) just to install and boot a fresh installed OS and keep the other with your stuff
I've actually got the same problem, but the reboots are caused by my CPU overheating, thus only when running resource-intensive apps. Regardless of the cause of the reboots, the problem robably has to do with your HDD though, as the fragmentation goes to hell with random reboots and you risk permanent damage as well. Find out what's causing the reboots, fix it, defrag*10/nuke your HDD and start over.
