Yeah, good stuff goes bad for no reason. That's part of the fun of computers.

If you separate out the first page/page pair, can you distill that into a PDF? 
If so, a workaround might be to do that and then stitch onto the rest of the 
PDF with Acrobat. If you have the full Acrobat, of course.

Aside from that, I'm not up to speed with recent version of 
FrameMaker/FrameMaker on Windows, I'm mostly familiar with the same process 
with the old Mac versions of FrameMaker, so I can't guess what might have gone 
wrong. When you say that nothing has changed, are you sure? Has the version of 
FrameMaker you are using changed? If you remove the graphic from the cover, 
does the rest of it distill? Do you know at what stage the hang is happening? 
Does it distill if you temporarily substitute another graphic? If you build a 
new one/two page FrameMaker doc with the graphic, will that distill? This sort 
of thing might give you some clues as to where the problem is.

Back in the day I used to use an Adobe printer driver on Mac that worked just 
fine for years and years and years, generating good .ps files for dozens of 
books, and then one day just didn't, and never did again, for no apparent 
reason. Shit happens - especially when there are deadlines.
