Have you tested your memory?

Which graphics card are you running? Which driver? Which screensavers,
come to that – if the system is locking up while you aren’t at it, then
there’s a good chance that a 3D screensaver is exercising part of the
driver that hasn’t been debugged properly.

Hope this helps,
