Hi Wei,

You mentioned your desktop is a Dimension C521.  For the similar E521
it looks like other people ran into the exact same problem:

  http://www.felix-schwarz.name/Linux_on_Dell_E521_(en)#Boot_.28solved.29

and the solution in that case was to upgrade the system BIOS
and/or try the kernel command line arguments "acpi=noirq" or
"enable_8254_timer".
