Ubuntu Freezes Randomly

[Muhammad Ausaf Ali Yousaf]

My Ubuntu 16.10 on Dell XPS 8700 Freezes randomly, SSH sessions are hung, mouse pointer does not move. Have also tried installing NVIDIA proprietary drivers but to no avail. Can anyone post a solution?

When my system hangs, no key combination works, everything is stuck. How can i determine a package in such case? I can attach logs with this bug report.
