Even though I'm new here, I'll try to help, since it's seems you're not
getting a response.
While you are waiting 40 seconds for a response, click Cntl+Alt+Del or
Cntl+Shift+Esc, and look at the Processes and Performance tabs in Task
Manager. Since there are many possible causes, this process could help
eliminate some possibilities. For example. Is any process using 99% of
your CPU ? Is the Total Commit Charge near the Commit Charge Limit ?
(search Help for what these mean.)
