Auto restart :(

Just bought all the following below. I put everything together and tried to install a game (WoW) and part way through my computer just restarted... so i started over and got a little farther into the installation, but i still got restarted again. Anyone know why this could be happening?

CPU- AMD Athlon XP 2700+

Video- ATI RADEON 9550
1Gb Ram

What is your power supply rating? I would guess that that is the problem.
