I've got an older system (Athlon XP 2000) that started freezing randomly a few weeks ago. I've tried reinstalling Windows, but to no avail. In fact, it froze just as I was about to format the hard drive so it's definitely not a problem with Windows. I've ran some memory and hard drive test and both showed no errors. So it looks like the culprit is either the power supply or the motherboard - or could it be something else that's causing it?

CPU and hard drive temperatures are fine by the way.
 
Which Memory and hard drive test did you run?
What are the temps?
What are the specs of the PC?

Windows Memory Diagnostic, Memtest86+, HD Tune.
Hard drive temperature is around 30-35 degrees C and the CPU temperature is around 40 degrees C. Those are the only two that I know.
Specs are:
Athlon XP 2000
Asrock K7S41GX
512MB PC3200
30GB Maxtor
300W Fortron
