Thanks for your help.

Your system freezing up may be indicative of a bad memory module.  You
may want to get a Knoppix CD or DVD and run memtest86.  You may also
want to check that your fans are running fast enough.  Overheating is a
frequent cause of lock ups.

The memtest86+ package installs as a grub option, so one doesn't need a separate boot image on CD to run it.
