Suggestions:
You can use Event Viewer to view and manage the event logs, gather
information about hardware and software problems, and monitor Windows
security events.
To view the event log: Administrative Tools/Event Viewer or
Start/Run/eventvwr.
To review Shutdown Event Tracker data, Open Event Viewer. Click System Log,
scroll to the Event column, and find entries with the number 1075.

I have just installed Windows XP on a friends PC. The
hardware exceeds the minimum requirements, but the
computer freezes for no apparent reason. It can be at any
time, with any progem, or non at all. We upgrade the RAM
and it is slightly better, however it is still doing it.
If you have any ideas, please email me them as i am really
unsure
Thanks
