How to diagnose hashcat progress stalling?

First, I would NOT attempt to use the CPU device at the same time as the GPU device. This will only lead to worse overall performance in the majority of cases, especially on an already weak system.

Second, how big is your dictionary? What is the mask you are trying to run? Perhaps this is a workload issue leading to a low power or idle state, but it's impossible to tell without some more information. I suspect it's not, but worth investigating that avenue first as it's an easy fix.
