<li><a class="zem_slink" title="Reboot (fiction)" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reboot_%28fiction%29">Reboot</a>. All <a class="zem_slink" title="Windows" rel="homepage" href="http://www.microsoft.com/WINDOWS">Windows</a> programs hang. Well, its more to do with the <a class="zem_slink" title="Operating system" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operating_system">OS</a> than it is to do with the program itself. But sometimes they hang, and the best thing to do when it does is relaunch. Hit <a class="zem_slink" title="Control-Alt-Delete" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control-Alt-Delete">Ctrl-Alt-Del</a> and go to the <a class="zem_slink" title="Task manager" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Task_manager">Task Manager</a> and force the progroam to terminate and try launching again. If that doesn&#8217;t work, Ctrl-Alt-Del  to reboot your PC and this will usually work.</li>
<li>Reinstall. Sometimes, Windows programs have a habit of getting corrupted. So it&#8217;d be handy to keep a <a class="zem_slink" title="Compact Disc" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compact_Disc">CD</a> case of all your <a class="zem_slink" title="Computer software" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_software">software</a> with their license keys. So be prepared to spend half-a-day reinstalling and reconfiguring your software.</li>
<li>Repurchase. If all else fails. Buy a new one. The only reason why they make Windows <a class="zem_slink" title="Personal computer" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_computer">computers</a> is for it to fail you and for you to actually have a reason to buy a new computer.</li>
