The last time you were tracking with this setup, did you have XP or 98 running?
My guess is that if you are trying XP for the first time, then that is the issue. For me, making the switch from 98 to XP was a crash nightmare. Ultimately, the problem was IRQ issues and conflicts with other pieces of hardware. In the end, I had to dump my sound card, and move my eds cards to an external chassis to get the thing stable.
So, I would try with sound card. Pull it. That might fix your problem. If not, there is a way to disable ACPI while installing XP- if you turn off acpi, you might have more flexibility changing IRQs and stuff.
If you do need to get set up with an external chassis, that's not so bad. One sold on ebay for $70 last week.

This is just my own take on it, but since PARIS has built in DSP for EQ, faders and basic FX at (effectively) zero latency, "Hog heaven" would be defined as sufficient CPU and RAM to also populate all available VST slots (64 for a one-card system) with reasonably CPU-hungry plugins. To me that's a good yardstick for a basic system. We got to that level of horsepower with Athlons quite a few years ago if I recall correctly.
After that, to me, more horsepower is about running other software, or multi-card operation (hence more VST slots to fill up).
Those Dells sound worth a try - hey, the price is right, and that's *ample* performance.
