Is there a lot of hard drive activity Paul
Have you run antivirus and spyware scans?
Try leaving the Task Manager processes window open on the desktop so you can see if a particular process is grabbing the CPU during the freeze.

Mine does that when the battery gets low, as well.
Even if it's wired, take the cable out of the socket and put it back in again as sometimes they fall out a bit and don't make a good connection.
