To open /media I move the highlight to /media but it doesn't lock up until I press Enter on the keyboard. In a normal console (putty) I can navigate all over without any problems and I've set the permissions on /media to 777. In a console also I went to /media and tried to open mc from there but it locked up again. I haven't tried rebooting the machine (yet) because I'd like to see if i can solve this without that. I'm stumped, thanks for any help.

First question I'd ask is, what's under /media??
For example, if you have a (slow) network share mounted (Google Drive, for example), it can take a good while to respond. Similarly, if you've got NFS/Samba shares that aren't ready or mounted, it'll attempt to get them read, until it times out. Same if you have a TON of files...it'll try to read/cache them all before it builds the tree.
