File hangs computer when trying to access

Ok so i have this file on my computer its 8gbs

When i try to access the file even if i try to move its location... the computer just hangs and nothing happens the progress bar pops up but it just keeps going and going and nothing happens and the computer ends up lagging like shit

i look at processes running to see why and its explorer.exe

so i figure im going to need to delete the file

but i cant... the recycle bin just keeps trying and trying (showing that its moving the file to the bin) but nothing happens

i go into cmd prompt to delete it the old school way ... and nothing happens it just hangs the computer and it gets all laggy

i go into safe mode and the same thing...


just this particular file mind you.... i run chkdsk and nothings wrong either

i've ran my spyware and virus progs and nothing

so i have no clue....



edit: should add i can't even right click on the file to look at properties it hangs and lags the comp when i do that too
