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?
