    The prpblem could be with programs you have running in the background. press ctrl+alt+delete and go to processes and see if there is anything that takes up all of the system's power. if that doesn't help format your hard drive since the problem is probably not with word or windows but with something else.

    and if you find that 'system' is using 100% cpu, or one of
    the system services (svchost), try using 'process explorer'
    from sysinternals.com to break down the process list into
    more managable and detailed chunks.

    good luck ;)
