The lock could come from different sources, either software based locks (X server, kernel soft/hard lock...) or hardware ones (a device failure, such as bad ram, micro over-heating, a problem with the power supply, a hard disk issue...). I would start by discarding X first (of course, if you are not running an X server there's no need to try this ;-) ), so can you "ssh" to the machine when it gets freezed?
