My computer is everything I could ask for. I'm running Windows Vista, XP, and Ubuntu. However, under a pretty simple workload, it it freezes, mouse included; a full system halt. It doesn't automatically shut down, though. I'd say possibly overheating, but it really cannot be overheating with the huge fans and cooler installed. Also, when I look in Event Viewer after it happens, there's nothing regarding the issue.

My specs:

CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300
Motherboard: NVIDIA nForce 790i Ultra
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce 8800 Ultra
Memory: 4 GB Samsung DDR3
Hard drives: WD10EALS (1 TB)
120 GB (I forget the product number)
160 GB (forget again :/)
CD/DVD Drives: 2x LG DVD DL Drives, w/ LightScribe

I can get the product numbers if necessary.

So, it's not the OS, not the memory (I've ran two memory tests), and most likely not overheating. Possibly the hard drive; I'll run chkdsk /r /f now. Any other suggestions?

SAVE MY BABY!

Are all the hard drives SATA ?
