Restarting By Itself

My VAIO Computer Freezes When Turned On
A few internal diagnostic tools get run before the OS loads and im thinking that perhaps the Master boot record (the place the computer looks for the OS to load) is damaged, so yes a reinstall may possibly fix that, but perhaps the HDD is getting on (you did mention age) and the platters and the read write head within the hard drive are probably near then end of their life so.
- Reinstall the Operating System and see if that takes away the issue or
- If the problems still occurs i recommend buying a brand new hard drive.
Im positive one of these is the reason for the freezing and long boot.
Need to reset cmos
Restart your Sony Vaio computer. Press the "F2" key to enter the BIOS. Use the arrow keys to highlight the "Load BIOS Defaults" menu option. Select it by pressing "Enter." Highlight "Load BIOS Defaults" again and hit "Enter." This will reset all of the settings of your Vaio's BIOS back to their original factory defaults. You can now select "Save Changes and Exit" to exit the BIOS. or WARNING: Before you start troubleshooting remember that you are dealing with electricity that can KILL.

Power down the system and disconnect the power cord. Wear an anti-static wrist strap to avoid electrostatic discharge damage to the Asus motherboard or CMOS chip or other sensitive components. Remove the cover and locate the CMOS coin cell battery and remove it from the system by gently pushing on the retaining clip and popping the battery out although on some motherboards cmos batteries are soldered in Discharge the CMOS chip by leaving the battery out of the system for up to an hour, depending upon the particular chip and motherboard combination. Replace the battery and replace the cover on the system. Connect the power cord and boot the computer. Save changes if prompted by the BIOS for system memory, drives detected, and other settings, and set the date and time if prompted at this time, or alternately set the date and time when the operating system finishes loading. If your computer does not have a CMOS battery or you're unable to find it you'll need to do a hard reset on the CMOS using a jumper or dip switch on the motherboard.
Information on finding these can be found through your computer or motherboard documentation. or you might set failsafe or optimised defaults Restart your computer During the boot process you will see on the screen to press a certain key to enter setup usually the Delete or F2 key this will vary depending on your computer and operating system Press and hold that key during the boot up process to enter BIOS using the arrow keys load failsafe defaults or load optimized defaults press escape then press f10 to save to cmos to restart hope this helps
Had power outage and now my sony vaio vgcrb30
more that likely the power supply or the motherboard were damaged.
Power Supplies are fairly inexpensive ($40 or so) so I'd replace that 1st.
If no change then failure is likely the motherboard
