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.
