For about two months now, my pc has been randomly freezing. Mouse won't move, ctrl-alt-del does nothing, totally unresponsive, and I have to do a manual reset. There doesn't seem to be any pattern to the freezes, but they happen almost every day; often multiple times in the same day. I have checked the event viewer, and there is an event called "kernel-power" associated with these freezes, but I'm not sure if it's reporting the system freeze or the forced shut-down.

This is my first pc "build"; most of the parts come from a used build that I purchased off craigslist (which I still call a good deal, even after all the work I've put into getting it working properly), and I've added some new ones as necessary. I'm pretty much a noob to this, learning as I go, so any help would be appreciated.
