What is the exact command you're running? Are you runnning fastqc with any flags? What is your machine's memory?

Using personal email addresses is discouraged, and for privacy reasons I removed your address.

Is the process using memory or is it completely dead/unresponsive? Try to have a look using htop or top.

You may have a corrupt fastq file. If you have the SRA# you can search EBI-ENA with that. You can directly download fastq files from there.
