This.
Do NOT use bricopacks. I used them when it was the first kind of skinning I ever did, but thats just what it is. A nub skinner. Poorly packaged and poorly executed, it will cost you a ton more system resources to use a bricopack as opposed to using SXP or WB6.

you might want to tap it vigorously until the black screen comes up, pressing it once never works for me lol

Adding on to that, use Windows Defender to track down startup programs and remove them, and change it to default stuff or use system restore.

You don't need Windows Defender to do that.
MSCONFIG in run.
As far as your problem, you might of gotten 3rd party bloatware installed along with that bricopack.
What I think is that you're experiencing a hang because of a virus or a batshit AV. Google and download HiJackThis! KInstall it and run a scan. C+P the logfile to Hijackthis.de and 'fix' anything marked as bad.
If it doesn't help, your AV is going batshit and causing 100% CPU load.
Its happened to me with ESET's NOD32 on TinyXP.

You need to figure out your WNIC and download it's drivers.
