Word 2003 problems freezing
I'm having problems with Word 2003. It keeps freezing and is driving me
nuts. I've tried everything I could think of. Cleaned, defrag, ran spybot, uninstalled and reinstalled but nothing is helping. Does anyone have any ideas. It started as soon as I upgraded from Word 2000 to Word 2003. There is no pattern to the freezing. Sometimes I can work for one hour and it is fine. Sometimes five minutes and then it freezes, and I have to rebot manaully. |

Run through the measures at
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...peningWord.htm and as you have been forcing a crash with Word closed, check for orphan files http://www.gmayor.com/what_to_do_when_word_crashes.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Paulette wrote: I'm having problems with Word 2003.

I too am experiencing this exact problem, and also use Word 2003. I haven't yet seen a satisfactory response, so was wondering if anybody has any more insights into what could be causing this excruciatingly annoying problem.

The first thing I would look at is what is loaded in memory? Do you have a
firewall that may be blocking some kind of update and therefore "freezing" Word? If so, try temporarily disabling it. In fact, it was my firewall conflicting with Microsoft's built in program. When I disabled M'Soft it worked. Have you tried booting up in Safe mode? Best of luck. "kruxx" wrote: I too am experiencing this exact problem, and also use Word 2003.
