If you can describe more about:

1) Where you are coming from (international flight or domestic flight), and...
2) Where you are going to (international or stay in U.S.)...

I can help you.

But here is the main guidelines:

INTERNATIONAL --> INTERNATIONAL
After you deplane, you might have to clear passport control, unless you depart from Canada, some Caribbean Basin country, Dublin (Ireland), and Shannon (Ireland). Passport control clearance takes about 20-60 minutes, depends on the airport. Take your baggage and check-in for your connecting flight. Head to the departure level. In some airport, you need to do US-VISIT exit procedure.

Have some snacks, or browse something before you head to security screening checkpoint. There are only a few number of shops and restaurants so be sure that you have ate and bought everything you need before go to the security screening checkpoint. And you will board your aircraft soon. Minimum time required: 3 1/2 hours (according to the rules).

INTERNATIONAL --> DOMESTIC
The procedure is almost the same as INTERNATIONAL --> INTERNATIONAL, but sometimes you have to change terminal and this might take time. Minimum time required: 3 hours (according to the rules).

DOMESTIC --> DOMESTIC
I haven't fly from domestic flight to another domestic, so after you deplane, you should ask the airport staffs if you need to recollect your baggage or not and check-in. Then, head for your terminal where your airline will depart. You will board your aircraft soon.

DOMESTIC --> INTERNATIONAL
I also haven't fly from domestic flight to international, so after you deplane, ask the airport staffs. If you have transferred your baggage and check-in, proceed to the terminal where your airline will depart. In some airport, you need to do US-VISIT exit procedure.

Check this site for a list of airports where US-VISIT exit procedure is tested: http://www.dhs.gov/dhspublic/interapp/editorial/editorial_0525.xml

After that, have some snack first or buy something (books, etc.) before you go to security screening checkpoint. There are only a few number of shops and restaurants so be sure that you have ate and bought everything you need before go to the security screening checkpoint. Then you just need to wait for boarding procedure and you'll be on your way.

There is usually an agent at the gate who can help you find your next flight. Many times, there are announcements on the flight about the gate of connecting flights. You won't have to worry about your luggage. You will check it through when you check in at your original airport. You will not pick it up until you reach your final destination.

If there is no agent to help you as you get off your first flight, look for a TV screen marked Departures. Look for the flight number of your next flight, and it will tell you which gate you must board at. Then you simply find that gate, and wait to be called to board. If you have a very long layover, the gate may not have been designated or may change, but this only happens in very large airports. You can always find an airport employee and ask what's up.

Good luck. I hope you enjoy your visit to Texas. It's a whole other country! (Just kidding. That's an ad campaign to encourage tourism to Texas.)
