freeze at login screen


I just installed CentOS 6.5 on a Dell Optiplex 9020 with RAID and an extra ethernet card. Everything worked well and I had completed all the updates. Out of nowhere the system freezes after a startup on the login screen - no mouse or keyboard control. The HD continues to be active.

No questionable messages appear on startup. No hardware problems with the hardware check.

Anyone seen this? Any ideas what to do next (besides a complete reinstall)?

Are you using any GUI?
Mouse and keyboard is connected to?
Please post /var/log/Xorg.0.log and dmesg.
