PC randomly restarts out of nowhere

As title suggests.Coming home the other day I find my PC started to restart out of nowhere, with no warning before or errors afterwards. I haven't changed anything and haven't had this problem before.

Any suggestions on what to do?

UPDATE: Memtest got through 2 out of 4 passes in under 4 hours before I got fed up with waiting, which in itself seems a good sign since it didn't restart there.Event viewer showed one odd Event: The process C:\WINDOWS\Explorer.EXE (ANDROID-17) has initiated the restart of computer ANDROID-17 on behalf of user ANDROID-17\smuld for the following reason: Anderer Grund (geplant) Reason Code: 0x80000000 Shut-down Type: restart Comment:

No idea why because automatic restart is disabled.
