I have some audio files with a .dts extension. I have been trying to play it and have been unssuccesful so far.

I understand iTunes is able play dts files (as claimed in their support site) but only if they are in wav format.

I tried VLC too, but the moment i play the songs -- my machine actually crashes -- and this has happened more than once !

Does any one have a solution. I have an iMac (intel) with a GB of RAM.

VLC should work i think. Make sure you are using a recent version.

If that fails you can try MPlayer. I am not sure if the latest version supports .dts by default. But you can download libdts with darwinports, and then compile MPlayer and add "--enable-libdts" when you configure it. It will auto-detect it and then you should be able to play .dts files. Certainly I have been able to watch movies with .dts audio tracks with this set-up.
