installation causes power cycle?

I purchased a new Intel DG33FBC MB with an Intel E2200 Dual Core
processor and 2 GB memory. I have used a 430watt power supply and a
680 watt power supply. I am installing SCO Openserver 5.0.7 on a
250GB WD hard drive with a SCSI cd-rom, set at id 5 using and AHA-2940
controller. I can get the install cd to boot and I will type in my
bootstring and the system will appear to start the install and then
power off and then back on again. After powering back up it will
typically recycle the power at various stages of booting the cd. I
have actually let it sit at the boot prompt for over an hour to see if
it would reboot, but it did not. Any ideas would be appreciated.
