Default Random Lockups?

I'm having this really annoying problem with my computer...It will randomly freeze, and the only way to fix it is to reboot it. It happens randomly, with no warning whatsoever. It'll be running fine, then bam, the mouse doesn't move or anything. I haven't been able to test this under any other Operating System besides WinXP, and have reformatted twice, and it still happens. This is leading me to believe that it a hardware fault, because I am lot loading any new software that has worked previously...SO my question is which bit of hardware with a fault would cause this behaviour? There is no warning, and the computer boots fine. It is a Athlon XP 2100+ running at 1733mhz on an Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe, with 1024mb DDR 233 (512+256+256) generic (but different branded...has worked for a few month with no problems in this configuration) RAM, and Seagate Barracuda/Maxtor Diamondmax 9 80GB HDD's, Maxtor Master Seagate Slave...any other specs just ask...

Oh CPU Temp is at a steady 50C.
