And sorry I should've added that Outlook other times just hangs for a while
then it starts working again. With my little sight Outlook looks to me then
as if it's digesting a very heavy message! I used to think it's my internet
connection as I have my emails configured as IMAP.

Same here. Outlook 2003 freezes on me very often giving the message (Outlook
has stopped working...) and most of the time silencing Jaws in the process.
Mind you, IE has started doing the same. It's terribly annoying to have to
reboot the machine every so often. Sometimes I manage to get the speech back
using the task manager or by killing Jaws with Windows Insert F4 or, by
managing to click the message which says close the application with sighted
help or by other clumsy methods. My system is Windows 7 32bit, Outlook 2003,
IE 9 with Jaws 13. With IE it could be a Flash crash of some sort but I
don't even remotely have an idea why this is with Outlook.

Hi Mike and Eleanor

I have noticed, on the odd occasion, that my machine completely freezes when
using Outlook 2003.  If I reply to an Email, for example, everything just
goes stone dead, JAWS disappears, and nothing happens.  Sometimes I can just
press the on/off switch quickly and it will shut down properly.  But
sometimes I have to force the PC off, and I don't like doing so.

I'm wondering if Office 2003 is getting a bit too old for Windows 7 Home
Premium 64 bit?  Any thoughts?

It's only now and then that this happens, but as you have both raised
issues, I would add my own voice here.


Kind Regards,

Jackie Cairns

Eleanor,

Funny, my computer is hanging when using Microsoft Outlook 2003.  When I
reply to an email for example, especially if they are not plain text, it
takes a few seconds to think about it.

Regards,

Mike

Subject: [access-uk] Problem with Computer Freezing for A Second at a Time

Hi
I have a problem developed only recently.  I can be reading a word document
or an e-mail or even writing and the computer freezes for a second or two,
then all is well.  However this keeps happening.  Now you could say maybe I
have a problem with my computer but it has started happening on another
computer too.  the only thing I can think of is that I have started using
MSE on both computers and more or less at the same time.  Might something be
updating and causing this freeze?  I am wondering if I should remove MSE to
see if it resolves the problem.
