Sluggish Qosmio F60 with Office 2007

Hello world

I have a new Qosmio F60 (i7, 4 GB of RAM, 1 GB graphics GT330) running Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit).

It works fine, but when I have a document open in Microsoft Word 2007, the computer runs very slow, with long delays, for example when switching between applications with alt - tab or by clicking on the taskbar at the bottom. It only seems to happen when I first just open word (ie. with "Document1"), but once I open another file or type text, it slows down to a crawl. I opened these documents without any problem on another computer. Word itself isn't slow when that happens, but around switching and do things like moving files in windows Explorer are very tedious.

Initially, I had a 32-bit version of Home premium installed, but this would freeze every hour or so, then reloaded the 64-bit home premium since the partition of hard drive recovery.

Any ideas on the reasons of the computer is so laggy? Don't think that I needed a PC range to be able to type a word document, and open a web browser at the same time...

Kind regards
Dennis

Unfortunately, I have two problems that you can watch in... but no solutions!

First of all, your likely Nvidia graphics card suffers the Nvidia powermizer DPC latency problems that cause the slower the computer each time changes on the GPU clock speed. NVIDIA claims to have solved the problem, but we don't see until they release their next regular update. Hope that Toshiba makes the driver available as soon as its ready! You can find a lot more people with the problem of Nvidia in the Satellite A series forum:

http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=49337&TSTART=0

Second, is a huge problem with hard disk queue length. You will find that your computer runs lightning fast of complex calculations, but slows to a crawl, every time that you run simple programs that spend a lot of time communicating with the hard drive... as an office. Try opening the Windows - resource monitor task manager and look at the length of queue disk when your computer slows down. Anything above 2 indicates a bottleneck between CPU and hard drive (my disk queue length happens occasionally when 10 multitasking!). I don't know if this is related to the Nvidia problem or if there is another reason why communicating with the hard drive is so slow. The Toshiba satellite that I use for work does not suffer from this problem and has the same type of hard disk (even if a smaller size). Furthermore, you have the 640 GB HDD?

If you find that you don't have the problem of disk queue length, make sure that you call the assistance of Toshiba on this topic. Most people report, the better chance we all have to fix!

    Mike-

    UH! After posting the added information in my last post, I have acted on an intuition, uninstalled, Office Live 1.5 from the Control Panel, rebooted, reinstalled and everything went well.

    So I guess there's a glitch somewhere where Windows Live Update thought I needed the upgrade while in fact I have not, and he is involved in a problem that cannot be resolved.

    Thank you for your help.

  • problem with Office 2007 x61T Win7 RC

    Some elements (Word, Publisher, PowerPoint) have stopped working.  I tried to repair, uninstall, re - install and nothing works.  I got to work (2 days ago) so other computer scientists could try.  It worked, but now the problem is back.  At that point, we thought that the problem could be the need to log out and log in as administrator...

    Help would be appreciated.

    "Microsoft Office Word has stopped working"

    First patch available online in several places:

    "Start button / all the Programs/Accessories/run and type"regedit"and then follow the path HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Office/12.0/Word.

    . . . .  and then change the folder "data" to "olddata" and the folder named 'options' to 'oldoptions '. The
    Technology says that Word then creates new files to replace. Yes, it worked. Hope this helps.

    Registry patches has not worked for me.

    Second solution:

    After reading the printer problems, I thought that maybe my laptop (with Win7) that are likely to be confused relating to the default printer as it is moved between networks often - especially because it appears that Word will attempt to locate the printer BEFORE loading.

    So I changed to a default printer that is always available (send to OneNote) and the problem is solved.  If you have Adobe Professional installed, it's a default printer, too.  Otherwise, try Microsoft Document Writer.  You can still select a connected printer when you are ready to print your document.

    As the problem has also affected Publisher and PowerPoint, they are also repaired.

    I wonder if this error has been reported on computers that are frequently not moved?

    Try to download the files on your computer, and then open them. Notepad opens files PHP, but also the other 3rd party software such as Adobe DreamWeaver.

    The PPP file extension is associated with the Panorama Factory, a photo-coutures program. For more information, contact Panorama Factory.

    Then click Start, and then click default programs. Check to see if there is a program associated with the extension php or PPP to open.

    I have MS Office Pro Plus 2007 is installed on my computer. I also MS Office 2003 is installed on a different computer. Snapshot viewer is installed on both. My snapshot of work files works with MS Office Access 2003 but not recognized by MS Office Access 2007. It would allow me to save them either! Is this a problem with FireFox (3.6.8)? However, I have no problem, open them using IE7/8 on both computers. Any ideas? Thank you.

    I heard about other problems with Office 2007 to 2003, but most of the people do not have Pro/business versions with access, so maybe there's a previously unnoticed problem.

    As indicated in my previous post, I don't always understand how you try to access the file. Can you right click and "save link as" to download?

  • Qosmio F60 - web browser SSL cecurity questions

    I have a Qosmio F60 with all SSL certificate custom web browsers and security loading pages, if I refresh the page a few times constantly it loads but then will be the question once again.

    I tried factory resetting the computer and the new facility, removed and reinstalled programs still the same issue.
    thought it might be the date/time settings that had been arrested, but if all 100% in the bios and windows.

    I thought that it is possible the RTC battery but the date/time settings are not change by themselves and everything seems fine, it would be useful to make a new battery rtc anyway?

    If anyone has any ideas that might help, please do this done in my head!

    Thank you all

    If the date and time is set correctly, you need not change the data and time but its recommended to load the defaults (F9) in the BIOS.

    Regarding the SSL certificate:
    First of all the certificate SSL / Digital certificates ensure the safety of websites by encrypting sensitive data and to verify the identity of secure Web sites.
    Usually, the site owner/administrator is responsible and must ensure the security of online communications.

    In my opinion, you must make sure that all your web browsers are updated. I use two main browsers: Chrome and Firefox. In my opinion the best browsers you can use today...
