Have you tried an external monitor to see if it happens there also?

Are the video drivers up to date?

In some situations when the system is not responding the screen, or the window for a application will get a Haze over it. Does it look something like that?

If you open the Event Viewer (eventvwr.msc) and look for error or warning messages, do you see any that might be associated with the event?

Is your system taking a minute to display the Desktop icons after it has booted into Windows, or are you referring to total boot time?

I wish I had an answer, but I suppose there is a chance it is a hardware problem. Have you tried Safe Mode?
