iPhone keeps re-setting itself!

My iPhone keeps resetting itself every say 2 minutes. It doesn't matter what I'm doing on it, the screen just goes blank and then the Apple logo comes up.

It's doing it so frequently that I can't even restore my iPhone using iTunes as it just resets itself before it gets a chance to restore.

Any suggestions?

You have tried a firmware up reset? It should allow you to do this as it only takes a few seconds.

Connect your iPhone to a computer with the cable (iTunes on)
Hold down the home and power buttons for ten seconds
After ten seconds release the power button but continue to hold down the home button
Keep holding down the home button. You will see a recovery message in iTunes.
