As J.R. suggests, it very possible you have a bad driver. It may seem to you that OOo (OpenOffice.org) is the only program running, but there many more background processes/services running that you cannot see. I enjoy a good Microsoft conspiracy theory as much as the next person, but I think millions of OOo users would have discovered this already. A number of my customers use OOo on Dell (Win XP based) computers and none have reported freezing/hanging when running OOo.
