Have you tried stopping manually all service you have there? Often happens to me this but it's do to some process that is locked by the kernel, and I'm talking about a debian box that uses NFS and Apache, so check that first. If it's locked by kernel you can't event kill the process, it needs to free itself and takes a lot of time. (unless you do a forced restart with the reset button :-P)
On the other hand, if it's hanging some process/daemon you could see that by searching on top/hop/ps, I would look carefully for any zombie process (+Z, or +D state too). Hope this helps!
