I haven't used the computer a lot, but this only seems to happen
during software update. I get the update, and click restart, it
hangs for a moment, then installs and restarts. After that it
freezes up. The mouse moves, but nothing else will respond. After a
hard restart you can run the software update, get other updates, and
it will freeze up somewhere along the way.
How much free space on that HD?
Run a Verify Disk pass with Disk Utility. If there are any errors, fix them.
Check the system.log for error messages.
Boot into Safe Mode (shift key held down), run the Combo updater, and
see if that performs better.
