It might be your power supply, but I'd reseat simms, check cables, 
make sure power cord is snug/try a duifferent one, etc. first.

A few yeara ago my P2500 was doing random reboots--after 5 minutes, 
1 minute, etc. I never did find out which solution solved the 
problem because I did all the above checking at the same time.

It may be the power supply, but check these things out first--that 
is, if you havem't done them already.
