it's either got something to do with your monitor or your graphics card.
p.s - you could have posted in troubleshooting section
dipdude said:It narrows down to your graphics card for me(freezes), does your board have onboard video, if yes, see if problem reoccurs or try another graphics card if you have one.
what about temp's, can you post them.
if you have o/c your system & bring it to default & try.
