    This one is basically windows saying "Power was lost" and it doesn't know the reason for it. Sounds like a hardware issue because system freezes so hard windows does not create a bluescreen error for you.

    The standard things I usually do are HDD and Memory checks (I use Hiren's BootCD that has Seagate Seatools and Memtest86+). Those are simplest things to replace and easiest to check too.

    CPU can be bad but there is no simple way to test it, maybe replacing it with another one and see if computer still hangs. Pretty much rest of the possible causes are all integrated on the motherboard.
