When you CAD the pc on a hang, check the performance. Is ram use higher than expected? Swap file usage abnormal? Any process sucking up CPU time (like AV)? Reads or Writes to the hard drive pending/failing?

Try setting your swap file manuall to 2x your installed ram. Or move it to another partion temporarily. Often, Windows tries to dynamically adjust it and sometimes hoses the whole thing. Also - a full scan (including surface check) of the HD may be in order.
