Looks like a hardware-driver-software incopatibility problem. These
are the hardest to fix, and include things like rebuilding the whole
driver database (by deleting all devices in the hardware profile),
switching cards (modem, LAN, video, 3DFx, SCSI etc.) and ports,
banning ports, and ripping out all extra hardware and putting it in
one by one until windoze starts to die.

Did you try running it under Linux/Wine? If it still hangs, then you
might have a MB/RAM/CPU problem, maybe something as simple as CPU
cooling.

For now, try to run it in the windows safe mode.
