You could try and give more information here. Knowing that a PC is locking up doesn't really narrow it down...

Or conflicting software, or a hardware fault, or a corrupt system file, or a dying hard drive, or a failing power supply.

There are a myriad of problems that could be causing it; I see no point attempting to solve this without more information.

That's actually a good point :P if you've just installed Vista, try rolling back to XP. If you've recently bought your PC [ie, did not upgrade], try a Linux live CD and see if the crashes stop. [You can download a Live CD from the Ubuntu website]
was put impeccably into words at DebianDay for me last Saturday, by Knut Yrvin of Trolltech - adults try something once, fail, and then are like "ffs this doesn't work". Children try, fail, and then try again, and succeed - maybe on the second, or even fifth retry. But the thing is that they keep at it and overcome the problems in the end.
