Is there anything I can do or check before I return it to the Geek squad?

Freezes could be anything. What I suggest is to definately post what type of desktop that you have so that we can assist you further.

Firstly... what have you installed on it? In all likelihood you are having some sort of software problem, which is not something an exchange would fix.
Run a hardware test on the PC and then run a system recovery WITHOUT installing anything for at least 3 days afterwards. If it all checks out and the performance is fine, that means that it's something you've installed causing a problem within Vista. It can be devices, programs, etc. that cause the problem.
