The BIOS upgrade much improved the situation, thanks for the hint. The
website I posted above doesn't freeze the system any longer.

However, if I run

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main() {
        int i, *p;
        for(i=0; ; i++) {
                p = (int *) malloc(10000*sizeof(int));
                printf("%d ", i);
        }
        return 0;
}

the system almost freezes. I can still move the mouse pointer, but the
GUI doesn't react to anything else and there's no printf output any
more.
