After quite a while of trouble-free computing on my new rig, something has gone wrong....
I keep getting random lockups, its even happened during the Windows XP setup 3 times so it isn't driver/software related.
I never get a BSOD or any other error, just a hard lock.
I changed the PSU last night and will probably try switching the CPU this evening.....my main issue is a PCI-E gfx card....I have no way of testing (grrr).....is it likely that a gfx card could cause random system locks, even during windows setup?

then could be memory (check seating) or even just hard disk drive connectors being loose, which can cause the same symptoms.
