I have heard that others have that problem.  Maybe you have got a
version of Emacs compiled with X support (under Messy-DOS, weird...).
Try starting emacs with the -nw switch.

When emacs calls LaTeX it suspends itself (and is mostly swapped on to
disk), but the Emacs process should resume when LaTeX has finished
running.  Emacs may hang if the LaTeX/previewer/whatever process tries
to read from standard input.  However, the EmTeX previewers read the
keyboard directly once it has started without causinbg troubles.
