[newbie] my Linux gui's keep crashing

2000-01-21 Thread Bill B.
Wondering if any one might offer a suggestion has to how I can get linux to work on my machine. Just had a relatively easy install using Mandrake 6.5, but my computer hangs about a minute after booting. I get the KDE or GNOME or XFREE to boot, and as I begin to look around, freeze. Every time.
