[Bug 1328767] Re: Random PC freezes

 

Well, the problem happened again after a BIOS update. Again, mouse does
not move, keyboard does not respond, cannot switch to a text-mode
terminal using Ctrl+Alt+F1. Only a power-off and power-on works.

Here is the output you requested:
alex@alex-laptop:~$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

  My computer randomly freezes once in a few days. I had the following observations

  2. Probability of freeze increases while playing video in a web browser.
  3. Probability of freeze increases while running a VMWare virtual machine running Windows 8.1.
