Have you booted it into single user mode?
I have not. At least, I haven't since I was trouble shooting issues with disk drives that are no longer in the system. What would I do in single user mode to trouble shoot the current problem?
See if it will freeze!!
If problems still persist other things to check:
1. Revert to default BIOS settings 2. Dusted off your computer 3. Re-seat all connections 4. Verify all fans are in working order 5. Run with external peripherals, e.g. USB drives. disconnected
