It sounds like you've got a worser form of what my DAD's A4k had.
I think from memory that increasing the CD drives total stack fixes this so go to the CD Prefs & crank up some of the memory usage. Max Transfer might fix it but since your system "hangs after a while" it seems that it may be there is not enough memory allocatino for the CD drive task or related tasks.
