I had problems with P4's with intel video on Fedora 12 and Ubuntu 9.10 onwards.

If the PC has an intel 945 graphics chipset, the likelihood of the
system freezing with Fedora 12 or Ubuntu 9.10 is very high.

The solution I applied for may parents computer was to use Arch Linux
and downgrade half a dozen packages a year ago. The method was partly
documented - http://sethanil.blogspot.com/2010/01/arch-linux-for-parents.html

Everything but the half a dozen packages on the system are current -
including 2.6.36 kernel on the system.

Regards
Anil

The information provided is inadequate. 

Please post output of:-

`uname -r` (this tells us the kernel version)
`lsmod` (kernel tells us the modules loaded)
`sudo lspci -vvk` (tells us the hardware and kernel drivers in use)

Does the machine respond to `Ctl + Alt + F1` key sequence? (this
should give you a command prompt).

Also, examine output of /var/log/Xorg.N.log. (after resetting from the
hang - replace  N with 0, 1 and 2)

This is quite ancient :)

  RAM : 1GB
  HDD : 40GB

You have not disclosed your current disk partition - the RAM and HDD
size is enough to install pretty much any distro's latest version.

Hopefully, your /home is on a separate disk partition.  Nevertheless,
back up your /home + plus any other customized config files.

After back up, I would suggest you repartition your disk to 10GB for
install partition (/ + other sys dirs), 2GB for swap, and the
remainder for /home.

I have a 18GB HDD with Debian Squeeze.  I have carved it out 6GB for
installation, 2GB for swap and the remainder for /home.  Base Debian +
XFCE4 desktop takes about 1.2GB for the installation.   Even for the
desktop Debian will install only the minimal GUI packages and let you
add your favorite apps later.
