A few suggestions

Possibly CPU overheating? Do you have SmartGuardian software or
equivalent (could be on install disk that came with Intel board) that
you can use to check fans/temperatures
Check you have latest video driver installed
Disconnect all peripheral equipment (ie scanner, printer, modem etc)
see if freezing still occurs
Try a different mouse
