New update: I did as per above post re. BIOS. Then about 3 hours of absolutely perfect useage, not a problem! I was actually thinking the problem was solved...
I was running a dvd in the background with no problems, typed a document using Open Office, even used the internet for about 45 minutes...
...then...
1 freeze, pressed ctrl alt dlt - black screen with cursor - esc - just black screen - waited for about 5 minutes, all resumed, internet still connected, dvd carried on from where it left off etc.
So I stopped the dvd & closed Media Player... within 5 minutes it had frozen again. I did the same as above, and 5 mins later it had unfrozen.
I carried on as usual on the internet, within another 5 mins another freeze, and it has just unfrozen again after the standard 5 minutes of blackness.
It's so confusing how I could get 3 hours trouble free useage, then 3 crash/freezes within 15 minutes?
