Anytime a computer hangs while a program is running it could be a couple of reasons. The main reason is just plain bad code writing by the programmer who wrote the program so it tries to do things it's not suppose to do. If you can fine the Manufactor's website they may have a fix for it. Second, sometimes too many applications are fighting for memory and they corrupt the memory module. The best thing to do is hit CTR-ALT-DEL to end the program and start over.

Another common cause is the over heating of the CPU, It is a good idea to check that the cooling fan is fully operational.

Someone asks you for help with a computer that hangs at odd times. You turn it on and it work for about 15 minutes and then the computer freezes and power down. What do you do first?

Sounds like a overheat problem. Check the fans to make sure they are all working properly, free from dust and debris. Could be bad capacitors on the mainboard, check to see if any are starting to expand or leak, this can also cause instability and odd problems with a computer. Could also be a virus - but this should get you started
