Might be a long shot, but could it be that this is what is causing the issue? Maybe you've disabled an option too much or disabled a service which is needed or something. I had similar effects before (with other programs though) which needed a particular service to be running, and those programs would simply 'hang' trying to detect and/or start that service which I got disabled (took me ages to pinpoint).
