Your PC is Hanged

I don't know if there is any thing to close the Application
But can you tell me if the cursor is visible and if yes then are you able to move it?
If no then I think that your PC Hangs

well dear karanth85
if u dont see the cursor to move while in full screen mode...

do one thing..
go to the settings of that game and change the window settings from FULL SCREEN to WINDOWED...

run the game... if it doesnt hang this time with ctrl del alt working then this means ur graphics system is faulty may be bcoz of outdated drivers.
