Hmm I have to admit I didn't think it would be the PSU but I'm grasping
@ straws a bit here :(

Oh yes, all drivers are installed

He did have problems installing the OS as the boot drive is an SATA
job and when setup tried to read the drivers from the floppy it failed. 
He swapped the floppy drive and it all seemed to work OK after that.

TBH I'm sure there are other things I've not been told but as I wasn't
there during the build I don't know if there were any other problems 
which may help troubleshooting this lockup issue.
