    Ok straight to the topic! It became extremely slow! when I start the prog, it takes a QUITE a while before I am able to do smth. When I can finally see text appearing after punching my key, it seems to function ordinary until I try to switch to other window or save or close it. Than it becomes extremely slow again and wont just save!
    I tried to reinstalled!
    Even switcched from 2003 to 2007 version!
    My coputer is not slow! (core duo 2,13)
    Is there anyhow I can fix this except formating machine?!

    Sounds like there are other issues with your notebook. Are other programs loading quickly or not? I would suggest running a virus scan, disk cleanup, an ad-ware remover, a registry cleaner, and finally disk defrag.

    The alternative process is simpler - formatting your computer and beginning fresh.

    Microsoft Office is the only slow program you have?
    Is your computer slower than normal or is it just Office that's very slow?


    Have a quick look at this guide to optimize your computer.

    Edit (quick replies): That's strange then. I'm not really sure why office would be slow and everything else normal, even after reinstalling it.

    I tried other programmes such as Acrobat reader - works perfectly.
    Unlike Excel f.e. it crashes after trying to type in some information in one of the cells and pops a message: Runtime Error!Program: Excel.exe R6025 -pure virtual function call
    After that it closes!
    Im thinking to go buy external HD today back up all the neccessary files and format machine!
