MS Word 2002 – 2 Second Delay Problem

by benxp . Updated 17 years, 8 months ago

I’m using a brand new machine (specs below), and when I’m in Microsoft Word 2002 it freezes for roughly 2 seconds, every 30 seconds exactly. During the freeze, the top-left corner in Word flashes 3 or 4 times.

I’ve found no solutions on the internet that work (Google’d this error and checked on Microsoft’s support site). Other’s are having the same problem I am: http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.word.customization.menustoolbars/browse_thread/thread/66aa939e5c20b263?pli=1

Here are my specs:

– Dell Vostro 200
– Intel Core2Duo E4600
– 3GB DDR2 RAM
– 320GB HD
– Integrated graphics
– WinXP Pro w/SP3 installed
– Office XP installed
– Adobe CS2 installed
– Kaspersky Internet Security Suite 7.0 installed

I’ve tried numerous things including turning off Kaspersky. I can’t get any work done, being interrupted every 30 seconds! Please help.
