Sometimes the culprit can be your sound card, though you never mentioned odd sound noises before the lockups so most likely not the problem. My lockups were cause by the sound card after trying different drivers, windows default driver, switching PCI slots & still getting lockups I then took the card out and enabled the onboard sound, problem solved. Though I wouldn't say I solved the problem more I got rid of the problem by removing the card. lol
