I've had a very similar problem with a 770Z that I bought used on eBay.
It locks up about once a week. Sometimes it does this a second time within a
few minutes of the first lockup.
I had thought this was a hardware problem, maybe in the motherboard.
If this happens on different TP models, then it is very strange.
