@VastOne, Sir Romanov: I don't think it could be an overclocking/heating
problem. Or at least not in my case, since I use a C2D E8400 and never
thought of overclocking. And since my BIOS controls the fans in my
chassis (CPU fan 1, chassis fan 1) (ASUS Q-Fan), and never experienced
such error in windows, overheating can't be the source of the freezes.

Anyway, it seems to me, that there are different type of freezes. Laysan
wrote, that his computer "only" turns sluggish, however, in my case, the
computer completely unusable after the freeze. My mouse (A4Tech USB)
losts power, the keyboard is not responding (even pressing the num lock
has no effect). It's the same like when I shut down the computer, the
only difference it's that it still has power (or at least i can hear the
fans, the power supply unit, and the power on led is still on). The
daemons stop, I can't establish connection through ssh, can't see myself
logged in in pidgin. Rebooting the computer it's working fine, until
another freeze.

I have been thinking of hardware problems, but I'm not experiencing
anything under Windows (even after using the computer for more than 12
hours), memory is just fine (the configuration is only a year old).

Last time I booted to Ubuntu 9.04 I was running "top" in terminal, just
to see whether something happens before the freeze. Nothing at all, no
unusual high CPU/memory usage.

Tomorrow, I will have some time, so I will be testing the computer (I
will even try installing Ubuntu on a pendrive and boot from it, just to
be sure the installation isn't the problem).
