Windows 8 RTM freezes, ESENT database detach

[AWS]

My recently installed Windows 8 RTM freezes several times a day. The monitor goes black, so I cannot really tell if it freezes, however there is nothing I could do to wake it up again (except hard reset).

The last two events in the event log are ESENT messages:

ESENT 103: msiexec (2820) Instance: The database engine stopped the instance (0). Dirty Shutdown: 0

ESENT 327: msiexec (2820) Instance: The database engine detached a database (1, C:ProgramDataMicrosoftWindowsAppRepositoryPackageRepository.edb). (Time=0 seconds)

I know these events happen all the time, however these are the last two before the restart and I cannot find any crash dumps or other information. Furthermore, these events remind me of an old error of automatic updates:

Does anyone experience the same? Where should I start investigating?

Thanks
