Take a look at the position of the switch at the rear of the unit, under the spot where the AC power cord goes. IT's round with a split down it's center. If it is not showing out the back more than 1/32 inch it may be in the wrong position, and causing the Mac to restart. Take a screwdriver and push in then turn a quarter turn in either the clockwise or the counterclockwise direction abd then see if it stops your Mac from restarting.
