I don't see a lot a answers coming in for this one and that's probably because 
there is no good answer. Most people would probably RESET the computer but by 
doing so you stand a good chance of corrupting the database. You'd better hope 
that you have a recent backup. And don't they recommend you to backup BEFORE 
doing a Check/Repair?

Here are some things that I might consider. Go to the Task Manager, 
Applications, and then End Task on all other applications that may be running 
other than Legacy. I would then go to the Processes tab, and click on the CPU 
column to determine what was hogging all the CPU cycles, and kill off any 
processes that I knew were unnecessary at this time. This is risky unless you 
knew what was needed and what is not but after several hours, you have to do 
something. And if it was the Legacy application and process that had the system 
hung, I guess one has no choice but to reboot and hope for the best.
