Hi,

I have noticed a few times that my computer has just randomly froze. The mouse won't move or anything.

Is this software based (which I doubt because I have a fresh install only 2 weeks ago and I have up to date antivirus).

And if it is hardware based what tests can I run to see what is causing the problem?

Thanks
 
Does it exhibit the same symptoms in safe mode? (tap f8 at boot to select safe mode)

If it does then it's likely (but not certainly) hardware based. If not then it's likely software based.
