[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1207742, member: 38864"] It could be any number of things. Something running in the background locking up the computer. Faulty hardware. I would first run the Apple Hardware Test to see if perhaps you have bad RAM. [url=http://thexlab.com/faqs/aht.html]The Apple Hardware Test[/url] Follow the instructions for Loop Mode in particular to test out the RAM more thoroughly. If the hardware checks out, then try creating a new user on the computer and use that account for a bit to see if the problem replicates there. This will help narrow down where the problem lays.
