How can I investigate the cause of total hang? Is there some information that I should pay attention to in order to get some hint?

Hi,
Thanks to both of you.

No response to any key(e.g. Caps Lock, Alt+F3, etc).
Any more methods that I should try.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Best Regards.
