Windows suddently freez

On xp it alsow happend but less often,
on vista sp1 it happens to me for about 2 times a day.
I do normal actions on my windows like runing msn, ie and stuff and it just
happens..
nothing responds, not the keyboard,mouse,even the modem "PC" light is off
when it happens.
I don't know if its a problem in my PC or not couse it's kinda new,
so is there a way to check whats the problem and how can i solve it?
all my drivers are up to date and i belive i don't have any viruses becouse
i just installed Windows Vista yasterday..
Thanks.

Rightclick the Command Prompt Icon on start, and click "run as
administrator."
Type:
perfmon /rel

Hopefully the errors will show up with some info on what is causing the
freezes. Most often, it is a video card driver problem, and your system
seller may have a web site with a better one.
