Thanks for your reply - very appreciated. Currently I am running
Windows Vista on a third harddisk to see if a hardware fault can be
excluded being the culprit. So far I did not had one freeze since
weeks running Vista. This points back to your suspicion. I will switch
back to the opensource nv driver and see if this solves the random
freezes.
