see if you can perform a "top" and find the process that is hung.if it has a state of "D", then you can't kill it. It's waiting for some type of IO or for some hardware. This is typical of a hardware failure, buggy driver, and sometimes weird things just happen if your computer becomes too hot (not enough cooling).
