I think I may have done a step into the right direction: I've turned off the "SpeedStep" and "Thermal throttling" options of the CPU in the BIOS and the computer has been working without hangs more than a week (and counting!). First I turned off hyperthreading as well but it seems that it wasn't the problem so I turned it on again because it make the computer slow. I have to check which one of these two options is the cause of the lockups (I will do it this week).
Maybe is a cpufreq bug?
