Default network PC freezing

We have 4 PCs connected by our wireless network. Lately, one of the PCs has
been freezing after an hour or two. Have tried cleaning the PC, but no
banana. We did change from WEP to WPA for our wireless encryption. Anyone
have the same problem. Anyone got any ideas.TIA

What happens when the computer freezes? Do all processes stop working? Some
process stop working? Network tasks stop working? How do you get things to
start again?

Use Process Explorer, and see what is going on when things freeze up.

We can get @ the task manager but do not know what to look for. of corse we
understand that CPU usage should be high for system idle. Do not really
know what to look for and memory usage. Thanks in advance
