Pentium 2 or 3 not sure which one...

Welll... you're definitely going to
need to be sure which one. Pro Tools would not be compatible with either a Pentium 2 or a Pentium 3, so that would probably be your problem right there... unless you are mistaken about the specs of your computer?
You
need to be sure of the specs of your computer because you
need to make sure it is compatible with Pro Tools. If it isn't, then Pro Tools isn't going to work. That's why they have compatibility documents.
Also, the very next item in the support documents on the Digidesign website (
after the expansion chassis solution) is this one:
DAE error -6006 on launch of Pro Tools M-Powered on Win XP machine. Pro Tools will not launch.
Here is the text from that support article:

The error means one of the following things happened:
- The driver failed to start (i.e. we called start but didn’t get any callbacks for five seconds). If there’s a five second delay before the error message, then this is what’s going on.
- The driver issued an unexpected / unsupported reset request. (That shouldn’t be the case for a firewire device unless it gets hotplugged or something.)
- The driver failed to respond to getBufferSize or getSampleRate calls. Again, not likely if the device is otherwise healthy.
Most common causes are:
Here are some tips on further debugging:
- Confirm that the device works as expected in some other ASIO application.
- Try a different firewire port and/or cable.
- Select some *other* sound device as the default device in the control panel.
