I really didn't have much trouble installing Linux Mint 17 from USB stick. However after install is when the rebooting started. I concur with most of what Rick Robinson said in comment #75. My solution as well was the fglrx-updates driver. However one of the first things I will always do on a new build is to install Google Chrome. I noticed that as long as I had Chrome running there were no reboots. As soon as I would close Chrome, the machine would reboot as if on queue. Possibly the same with the default browser in Mint, Firefox. I don't know that for sure because I only kept it running long enough to download/install Chrome.

I thought maybe that would be true as long as some application was running. I tried running LibreOffice Writer in the background, but it had no effect.
