I have bought my current configuration in February and since then it produces random freezes, sometimes once a week or once in two weeks.
Originally it was manually built around 2008 August from the following components:
Asus Maximus Extreme (X38)
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450
NorthQ Siberian Tiger CPU Water Cooler
Zotac GTX280 AMP!
4GB Corsair XMS3 DHX DDR3 1066MHz
Corsair TX 750Watt Power Supply
1xVeloci Raptor 300GB, 1xSamsung 1TB, 1xWD Green Power 1TB, 2xSamsung 500GB in RAID
Creative X-Fi Xtreme Gamer
Lian-Li PC-V2100B PlusII
Pioneer DVD burner
I have used it with Vista x64 Ultimate up until three weeks ago when I switched to Windows 7 RC x64 and it already froze on win7 too.
I happens while doing random things, surfing, watching movies, I don't remember maybe while playing too.
On Vista after it froze the HDD started seeking but it was unresponsive and only hard reset works. And if there was sound that keeps turning on every ca.3 seconds for 0.25 seconds or so.
It haven't been overclocked. (since I have it at least...)
I don't really know where to look for the error since I can't reproduce it on purpose. Any suggestions how to tackle the problem?
