If you have another pc around you could check if the box is still reacheable via ping
after the lockup, which might indicate that it's just X which died. In that case its
probably really related to your video card( or its driver).
Maybe you could try with the standard vesa driver.

You might also try with another kernel(best the vanilla one from kernel.org).
Doesn't Fedora ships his kernels with lots of security stuff(memory protection, selinux,
dunno what else) enabled?

Perhaps playing with sysrq could help you to get more infos where it locked up
I never used that myself, but there is a documentation in the kernel
sources(linux/Documentation/sysrq.txt). Or just google ;)

Last possibility i can imagine is a hardware failure(RAM, power supply). But as it only
happens with wine this seems relative unlikely.
