Another thing to try is run MSCONFIG and disable all your startup items. Then, restart, and let the computer sit and see if it freezes. If freezing is inevitable, then this will eliminate this possibility, or point you in the direction of the problem.

I don't see anything that takes up much memory or processing.
I've just freshly installed windows, so I have nothing installed right now but Nvidia GPU drivers, firefox, utorrent, KMP video player. Windows 7 didn't need me to install any mobo/lan/audio drivers.
Maybe I'll try shutting up utorrent and see if it still freezes. Just over the weekend it froze once mid way as I was using the PC. So it's definitely not a power management issue.
One thing I don't recall doing was formatting my new SSD, I just installed the OS on the SSD. Don't know if that would cause any issues.
Anyone else have any ideas?
TIA!
