I see from another post that this is a restore of a full backup. That should work without any problems. Does the windows event log contain anything useful? Does it hang on the last logfile or somewhere in the middle? Always the same logfile? If it hangs at a particular logfile you might be able to just not select that and subsequent logfiles and restore. If that works, you might be able to restore only that logfile and subsequent logfiles (which will fail but might still get the files on disk and then trying the first restore should get you running again). If it hangs on the last logfile then it's probably the actual restore process that is hanging. That can take quite a while depending on the database size. How big is the database? How long have you let it sit for? While it is 'hung', run perfmon and see if there is lots of disk activity.
