I have the same camera, but never had this problem. I think there's something wrong with the shutter mirror or worst, the sensor. Did the viewfinder blacked out when you press the shutter? I think you need to bring it to Nikon repair shop....

When pressing the shutter release button two different event occur: 1. either the battery shows drained battery even though battery is freshly charged. Camera is frozen. 2. upon pressing the release button display shows a flashing "F" and camera is frozen. It happens randomly and with several independent users. This problem occurred with D70 and D80. I need to turn off camera several times before I can use it again. Nikon admits problems with suppliers but is not helpful otherwise.
