First thing I would do is boot the live CD image, and then from the live CD image mount your real file systems and make a back up of everything important. Also see how stable the box i running the live CD. If it's stable running the live CD I would take a hard look at your real disk with chkrootkit etc and see its rebooting due to a misinstalled trojan or similar, especially if it was being reliable before. It could also be a failed update, or a particularly unfortunate disk corruption. Clearly also try booting older kernels off the boot menu. If it isn't stable running the live CD you may have a hardware problem, or some modern laptop hardware has been known to get itself into a state where it stays hosed until power is physically lost. On some Ultrabooks that's a nightmare as the battery isn't removable, but on most laptops removing the battery for 10 minutes does the trick. If it still isn't stable you may have to look for hardware faults such as a fan failure.
