Hi guys

I recently purchased a custom built pc and after installing vista home premium 64bit it freezes within a few minutes after entering desktop. It doesnt matter what im doing it freezes so its nothing in particular. When it freezes i cant do anything everything is frozen on the screen and i have to do a manual shut down or restart. This happens a few tmes but then i could start it up after the 3rd or 4th time and it wont freeze. For example last night it froze on the first two attempts at being on the desktop, then the third i had it on for about 12 hours and no freezes at all. Today a similar story, it froxe the first 3 times and now im on the fourth and it has been on for about 4 hours and no issues. Is this a vista related problem or is this hardware? i have warranty but i would like to try to find the issue myself before i take advantage of it. I have tried updating drivers and the mobo bios but it still hasnt fixed it.
