Help: mandrake 10.1 log off crash

Hello, this is like the fifth linux install ive done and each one seems to have its own unique stupid problem. This time its the log off. Whenever I log off or restart machine or shutdown the machine my monitor goes to idle and my comp is unresonsive. I have just been hitting the restart button on the case, but I would really like to solve this cause its a pain in the ass. Im running mandrake 10.1(official), KDE 3.3

Get back to me if possible , thnx,

Try logging off/shutting down from a different window manager, like GNOME. See what happenens then; it may be a KDE3 bug.
