The nearest thing I have had to your problem was the
computer running out of memory during calculations. It was
a software issue where the program was using blocks of
virtual memory on the hard drive, but forgetting to release
them.  It was not Lyx, but a Windows based CAD application.
Keystrokes were being accepted but did not appear  on
screen for  several seconds.

However with 16gb of ram available this should not happen to you.
