Reboot. Seriously, what is wrong with that approach? If you don't know a 
better way to get back to a usable machine, IMHO rebooting isn't that 
bad. If you use C-A-B you lose unsaved data of applications still 
running. If you reboot you lose unsaved data of applications still 
running. What's the difference? OK, it is frowned upon because it is 
the Windows way of fixing occasional problems, but I don't see why it 
should not work nearly as good as C-A-B. And if you have that 
occasional problem very often you can still enable C-A-B to save a 
minute or two from rebooting.
