Only thing I could think of, is if you have a DVD drive or something, upon collecting data causing it to lock up due to some internal problem. (If you're browsing through explorer it causes this to a same effect).
Not sure if this is the problem, but it reminds me of the old Windows Vista problem back at launch where the system would lock up severely due to viewing incompatible (non-supported) file formats while browsing in Explorer.
Anyways goodluck on that.
