Does it freeze completely? What happens if you do Ctrl-Alt-Delete? Have you disabled unnecessary services and/or run a defrag?

You need to run some basic diagnostics tests.
These kinds of lockups are usually associated with one of two problems.
1. overheating CPU or graphics card
2. Failing harddrive.
"maybe a clue but my hard drive is clicking"
Download a harddrive diagnostic tool from the HDD maker.
I used to have a signature but it disappeared and I just couldn't be bothered writing another so please feel free to ingore this.
