Did you do a clean install, archive and install or upgrade install? You 
may be having a conflict with some pre-Jaguar software. It's been my 
experience that upgrade installs can cause problems if you have third 
party drivers installed or other custom/non-standard set-ups. I'd try 
to repairing ownership preferences and running MacJanitor. If you're 
still having the lock-ups, I'd reinstall Jaguar. Doing a clean install 
will leave you with a much "cleaner" system folder, free of leftover 
extraneous files and conflicts from the old system.

Just my $0.02.
