Have you considered the computer may lack for system resources (such as RAM or CPU)? Todays DE (GNOME and KDE) are memory hungry, so couldn't be that your machine is very busy? :-? - What are your PII specs (RAM and CPU)? - Try to start the system without X (just console) and check how it behaves - Run "top" to watch for high processes consumption of RAM and CPU If non-GUI environment runs just fine and you still need a DE, think about switching into a lightweight GUI desktop.
