I've attempted to make a Desert world with few pockets of water, lots of magma, and few trees... yet everytime I start the generation my DF freezes up... so I figured I must be doing something wrong with the seed, can anyone give me a seed for such a place?

There's a place called world gen cookbook.

I don't ever get freezes with worldgen no matter how I change stuff though so you might end up needing a world made for you.

Freezes up for how long? I was generating a large world last night and DF would freeze for a minute at a time during the process, but always recovered eventually. This is on a pretty fast system, too.

My old dino boggles for a minute or so occasionally on semi-vanilla world-gen.

Well I'm running 40d11, and it freezes up for hours on end sometimes whenever I try a custom seed

I have 1gb or ram and a 2.4 ghz processor in the thing so I don't think it's a performance issue or else it would freeze during normal generation as well.

Probably there's some paradox-ish situation in your custom world recipe.  I'd suggest taking a clean vanilla copy of that size world from the game, and re-tweaking it step by step, and making sure nothing is too out of place.

Paradox settings just give infinite rejects.

If it doesn't end up making your computer freeze you could use world painter instead.
