If you can open a terminal, do
top
to see which process(es) is(are) hogging your computer (give more weight to the memory column) and do
ps -ef
to see what processes are running and their ID #.
Use kill (need PID #) or pkill (need executable name) to remove the process.
If you know it will hang when running something, try opening a terminal first. Type "top" and make sure the memory column is viewable. The run the program(s) that you think problematic.
