   Please, you have to know the basics of linux before anythg else. And 
the basic says that.,... to have any linux distro as ur  desktop, u 
shlould have a sound swap space. Its always good to have double the size 
of ur RAM or even greater as ur swap space.So for 128 MB RAM or so .. u 
shld have 256 MB swap space.
Generally its good to have 512 MB or more as swap space. Once  you have  
a swap space, your system is good, fast and reliable. I am using linux 
from 7 years and i can assure its better than windows.

Toufeeq y do u confuse a new linux user with ur complicated situation. 
KDE and Gnome are bloat if we do not give them proper hardware support.

Also to add.. the accessing CDROM in linux will never hang ur system 
unless and until u have a bad cdrom / bad configuration or bad CD. Mail 
us ur cdrom drive model. To figure out ur problem in cdrom access.. 
please use strace and mail us it.
