Computer Lockup

For some reason my computer keeps randomly locking up and i don't know why. The mouse don't move and holding ctrl, alt and delete does nothing. I get no blue screen of death or nothing. Any ideas.

I have a Coolermaster 520w Modular power supply and i tested my ram 2 months ago due to having bsod here and there and was told to up the ram voltage due to having 4 sticks of ram.

Like i said i upped the ram voltage to the max safe setting and upped northbridge voltage a notch a few months ago. Do i up the northbride another notch.
