I have encountered this wierd problem. When I turn on my PC, sometimes it boots fine and sometimes it just freezes and I have to manually restart the PC. The problem also occurs with some applications like Tomb Raider: Anniversary Demo and Windows Movie Maker. While playing Tomb raider anniversary the PC suddenly hangs. I have scanned for probable viruses, but has not solved my problem. Is it a hardware problem. Helpppp!!

it can be a RAm problem or even a power supply problem...

Also check for CPU and Disk temperatures. Too hot PCs freeze themselves, it happened once in my case.
